Last year was one of a kind. But for now I will focus on one particular event that has special memories for me. The women of Grace (a church fellowship for mostly unmarried women) had a retreat to reflect on God for three days in a not so familiar place, away from the city.
We had a 2 hours drive to the place. It was far. Not leaving out the fact that we got lost and the network wasn't good. We eventually got to our destination. All the long hours and trouble of being lost paid off once we got there. The experience of that weekend is something I will always have close to my heart.
The time we had, just listening to some ladies take us through sessions, were great.
I had time to sit in a hammock and just reflect on God’s amazing work. The view itself was splendid. Tents were available for some girls. I was in the cottage that was set aside for the mamas. I can only tell this story in picture. What a great way to close 2011.

Hamlet had a great time. |
I had a great time too. No wonder I was smiling .... "Darling Mummy" is what my son called me all the time we were there.
Then we had time to go and sail on a canoe that was
small, a little scary. But who cared at that moment? Crazy!!!
