This fall we've had a common theme of seeing God in the difficulties. He loves to show His kindness in every situation. It's so wonderful to know that He is always with us. One of the ways we saw this kindness was when Ike had to go in for rabies shots after a dog bite. Of course, this wasn't our favorite thing to do, and he had to go in seven times! But on one of the trips, we met this lady who needed a ride. We drove her to her to a clinic and then to her home. She was so grateful for the help and so excited for her granddaughter to meet English-speaking kids!
She invited us in for tea and generously pulled out her precious omul fish (native to Lake Baikal) and preserves from her cupboard. We had a lovely time and conversation and exchanged phone numbers to keep in touch.
We didn't love that Ike got bitten by a dog, but we love how God brought beauty from it, as He loves to do!

Poor Ike! I love how you always find ways that God is blessing you in the midst of trials. Such an important lesson to teach our kids!
