Valentine’s Day & Camp AGAPE :)

Happy ‘late’ Valentine’s day to everyone!! Hope ya’ll had a good one! Even singles deserve to have a fun and enjoyable valentine’s day, don’t you think?

Anyways, over the weekend we had 3 couples that dropped their kids at our place coz they went to Dubai for the shopping festival.  Papa and mama were supposed to go but they ended up not going and stayed home with us.  3 couples = 6 kids stayed home with us…A LOT OF FUN! Starting from the youngest to the oldest…..we had a valentine’s party with other ‘bachelors’ too….Vanessa decided to call it ‘Camp Agape’ and arranged all the room placements…Daniel, Jeff, Ryan, Talenta, Daniar, Ataya, Utari, Vanessa, and I, all in one room….Vanessa and I got to sleep on the bed…the rest, on the floor :p…Party was a lot of fun with fun games and a fun and entertaining white elephant, except for Daniel coz Vanessa stole his disposable camera and Winnie the Pooh photo album :p…but, before that we did get to have a lil short message brought by Vanny…and some singing too so there was a bit of ‘holiness’ for the night :p..anyways from the white elephant,  I got a camera case (which I really don’t need!) and a spaghetti fork that swirls automatically…YAY! =D We didn’t sleep till really late playing game…Konami cup…and ended up sleeping at 4 am.  Later that morning, everyone woke up to continue playing the game pretty much :p…Om David came later on to grill some sherry….and we went later that afternoon to corniche. It was good except that that place was packed with people…but we did get to eat dinner there before the dust started to spread….

That morning though, Evan (1 year, 3 months i think) started liking me…surprise surprise….he stayed with me a lot…wanted me to carry him and didn’t even want mbak Narti to take him away…it was good, except for the fact that he is REALLY heavy for his age. Oh well, twas fun nevertheless….the weekend was definitely a real blessing to be with the kids, play with them, started rumours, etc :p….

Latest health update: I did go to the doctor last Wednesday, waited for 2 hours.  When we got it, it was a different doctor (not Dr. Mustaq…it was a lady instead). She said that my blood results weren’t in the computer so I have to go again this coming Wednesday (typical!) But the Qatari lady, Zaina, was nice enough to tell mama to call her first so she’d give us a number before getting there….so I’ll post the latest update again here…

Prayer requests:
- My grandpa was in the hospital for light stroke. He’s back home now but finding it hard to get his rhythm back…so please pray for healing…
- My hermano…I know he’s facing a difficult time but please pray that he will be able to go through it just fine…Prov 17:17
- Prep for Easter for AGAPE.
- For Vina in  Dallas with her studies…as well as all the friends there….

Until next post….
