Children are one of God's Many Gifts

Blog post today by Lynne

October 15, 2019 - This morning was glorious; the sun was shining with tons of flowers blooming on the compound and along the road side. Today we traveled up the hill to Glenn Olsen Hospital, unpacking and stocking hospital supplies.   The hospital was fairly quiet, so Bill Zuber and I checked in with Sister Meseret for ultrasounds and were delighted to see a few expectant moms.   Our first study was pretty straightforward and off she went. I was “learning the ropes” again on the ultrasound machine and it was my turn to scan.  On went the gel and...wait what’s this?  What am I seeing?  Twins!  Yup there they were having a party in there, both very active and not wanting to sit still one second to be measured! Mom had 3 children at home, so I'm not sure she was excited as we were about this double blessing. Sharing in our delight was Sister Meseret. It turns out she and I both have a set of twin daughters. This is an unexpected bond we nowshare.  Children are one of God’s many gifts to us and this day was a reminder of God’s love for us.
