The Fluffy Ones

This morning I was reflecting (once again) on all it took to get here and how scary it was moving to a continent where we knew no one. Selling everything, flying to Johannesburg, driving across the Kalahari. When I think back on our time here, there was some anxiety and there has been bouts of loneliness, but nothing insurmountable. And nothing that would ever make me change my mind about being here. I often wonder how I've escaped massive culture shock and I know its all about God having mercy on me. I've said it before and I'll say it again. My doggies are a gift from God. I was looking through all our pictures and I realized that I am never alone. If I'm in a picture, so are the dogs. There are two personalities with me at all times when I'm at home during the day. They have definitely changed this experience for me. I love them with all my heart.
