God's Sweet Tart

This is Quomo

At least...

That is it's African name

I personally like to call it

God's Sweet Tart!

Sorry I didn't think to take a picture of the inside

But I will describe it as best as I can

It is filled with large seeds that have a pulpy fruit around it

When you first put one in your mouth

It tastes like heaven

Or sugar

Then as you continue to eat it

That sweet taste turns sour

It is so good!

It literally hurts the more you eat :)

Love it...

God always does it best

My Most Recent Room-Mate

Meet Stan

As far as I can tell

He is some sort of lizard

(Although I am not an expert on reptiles)

Super cute

And if you look closely

He even has a Goatee!

And for the last month

He and I have been room-mates

Until today

When I FINALLY cornered him in the bathroom

And exercised my right to have him evicted

He now lives on the wall outside the courtyard...

I am sure that he will do well there

I even warned him to stay away from the two dogs...

They enjoy munching on those of a reptile sort

Hopefully he will do well in his new home...

Although

He may find his way back to my room

In which case...

This whole process may start over again

I love my life!

Eden Christine

So I was looking back on some previous blogs that I had written

I realized that the last picture I had posted of Eden was this one

Which was taken 2 days after she was brought home

Looking back I can't believe how much she has changed
Here is a picture I took recently!
 

Doesn't even look like the same child does it!
Wow, God is so good...
Every time the McCourtney's bring a new child in the their family
I am reminded of what God did for me
He took me, broken and bruised by the world
and brought me into a new life with Him

Awesome!
