Verburg family

It is finally quiet in our home. We had a great time with all of our guests since the middle of December but have to admit that sometimes the peace and quiet feels good. Having said that I am already trying to figure out when I will see the kids again, nothing officially planned until Graces birthday in March, that is a long time.
Mari will be home at Easter, with Jesse this time. She asked me to find out when the entire Van Wyk family can get together that weekend. Does Easter Sunday work for everybody?? She is anxious to see everyone and also wants you to meet Jesse.
We are in the middle of wedding plans, details, details, details but I really don't mind most of the time, but there are days.
John and I are so pleased that Mari is marrying a Christian man who loves her and God with all of his being.
The last three weeks we had the pleasure of hosting Peter, a South Korean teacher. It was a time of fun learning about his culture and sharing ours with him. I'm sorry you didn't get to meet him, he would have been amazed at the size of our family. In Korea no one has more than two children.
I don't think I ever said how I felt God working the night we got together to divide some of Mom's stuff. It would be a lie if I said I wasn't worrying about that event. But since worry and prayer can't live in the same house, I prayed and prayed and prayed. God chose to honor those prayers and showed all of us how mature Christian women act in times of challenge. What a blessing that all of us love and serve the Lord and when push comes to shuff we walk the walk and not just talk the talk.
I love you all!
