Wednesday

One-and-a-half-month more to freedom... Ah, at least a glimpse of light! Pure bliss thinking about it.

Also, one-and-a-half-month more to a very special day to come :) A day of celebration. Not of the beginning of a 2-week school holiday - but of the unfinished tapestry of a love story, which God is weaving upon looms of grace, having arrived at one if its many checkpoints-yet-to-come. 15th of May, 2010. Lord, we thank Thee and wait for Thy hands to usher in this day.

Today, we were flabbergasted to find our classroom filled with a fury of flying-termites. Thanks to the drastic change of weather. Many had shed their wings...so all you could find everywhere, settled in a thick blanket - were wings and wriggling bodies. Yuck. We called it the '8th plague' (there were 7 plagues in the Book of Revelation). Since the girls mostly went, "Ewww...." and refused to enter the classroom, our brothers kindly swept out the classroom and disposed the termites. The termites also had invaded the pond - bodies and wings floated gracefully on the surface of the water... and had to be fished out with a sieve.

Monkeys were everywhere too. I think they too were glad that their Maker had finally brought rain and a sweet coolness in the air. Cute. They even sat on the boughs of the tree, curiously watching us through the glass windows... while we were discussing the Book of Job in the classroom.

Oh, don't I just love quiet breathers like this... With school over, lunch... then a break for checking my emails, contemplation on God's Word and prayer.... before returning to work, work, work.

Good Friday this week and Easter. Ben's parents and brother are getting baptized this Easter. For this, we are so thankful.

Starting on my Biblical Interpretation homework today. Have a good day, people!
