Happy Easter





What a truly glorious day. We were fortunate enough to spend it with family. We are also finally packed up for our adventure to Michigan tomorrow. We are excited to go back again. Josie is looking forward to seeing everyone and I think is excited to work with Przemek again. She went Easter egg/present hunting on her canes today and was fairly steady. I am excited for Przemek and Sylwia to see her progress.

A story from church today. We got there early enough to sit in the second row. Josie loves to watch everything that is happening on the alter and there were even 6 trumpets there today. We were saying hello to people we knew around us. Most people that know us will come say hi to Josie. Just before Mass started, this woman that looked to be in her 70s approached us. She bent down to Josie and with tears in her eyes said, "Honey, you won't understand this now, but on Thursday at the service you brought Jesus to me. All these years of going to church and I didn't really know him until then. Thank you." It was so kind and sweet. She kissed Josie on the cheek and returned to her seat where see sat quietly wiping her tears. I just wanted to go hug her. It amazes me that our God is so great that he chose to use Josie, a severely handicapped 8 year old, originally from a remote village in Guatemala to bring himself to this woman. Wow, Happy Easter and thank you. Jenny and Josie
