Happy Canada Day

Happy Canada Day to everyone back home.
Wherever you are, we hope it is a nice, sunny day to commemorate Canada’s 146th birthday.
We hope each of you realizes how blessed you are to live in such a great country. Sometimes when that is the only place we have lived, we start to take all that we have for granted. Believe me, Canada is a great place to live- not perfect, but it is a great place.
Things are getting back to “normal” here. Our kids left here on Friday evening and arrived back home on Saturday evening after a long trip. I remember when Charissa went to Europe in Grade 12 and said, “I love travelling, but I hate the travelling part.” In other words, seeing other parts of the world is amazing, but getting there and back is exhausting. I have to agree with her on that- the trip to and from Uganda is grueling, but it is worth it for anyone who may be deciding to come in the next few months.
Greg is back at work today and will likely be working some very long days this week- his plate just continues to get fuller and fuller. He is actually going to need a platter pretty soon!
Lorenda decided to take the day off to do a little relaxing, some laundry and a little organizing around the apartment. Having five adults in a tiny apartment called for a little rearranging!
It has been brought to our attention (again) that some people are unable to make comments on our blog. Of course, I (Lorenda) would not be able to do anything to help that problem so I sent it off to our computer genius son-in-law, Cam. Problem solved! There should be no further problems with anyone trying to make comments so I expect to see a whole lot more comments there now!
Once again, Happy Canada Day. Relax, enjoy your family and be thankful for the great country we call home.
