Louanne,
You are the most selfless person I know, you are the best wife, mother, friend, confidante and I am so proud to call you my daughter! Your actions carry so much more than anyones words can. Thank you for being a wonderful inspiration to all of those around you. May our Amelie continue to get well and may Nadia enjoy her new sister more and more each day! Mike thank you for taking care of my girls each & every day! Love & hugs,
Nonnie/Mom xoxo

LooGoo:

I am so happy that you discovered this problem with Amelie and have been able to get her treated. My hope (trying not to be political) is that our granddaughter, this precious Amelie (Nadia too) will always have access to quality healthcare and clean water. No matter what happens in America, I believe your girls will be blessed.

I worry some about the future of my children and grandchildren and simultaneously, I revel in thanks and praise for what you and Mike have done, not only for your girls, but for many across the world today.

We simply need to find a time to meet Amelie soon. I had always hoped that by the time I reached my current age that I would be less busy with work and over active in leisure including regular trips to see the the girls. The truth is that I am so thankful to be employed in these current times.

Thank you for being the mother that you are. Thank you for being the wife that you are. Thank you for being the sister that you are. And most importantly to me, thank you for being the daughter that you are. In the end you will surely hear, “Good work my good and faithful servant!”

I love you all very much,

Dad / Papa

Thanks for sharing, Louanne. God is really a cool teacher, isn’t He? So glad that Amelie will be feeling better soon. Now we will know if she really is a good eater or if the parasites were the good eaters!!

Thanks for linking over a WAGI. It is always good to be reminded of what we have and how many are still struggling for the basics. I am glad Amelie will be able to get better now.

Excellent post, Louanne. Sorry I missed out on the water well fundraisiing. I guess we were up to our eyeballs in our own life and pending move. Can’t wait to meet Amelie, hopefully this summer.
