Pictures from India

Well today we finally got some pictures of Daddy in India. The pictures were all taken just outside of his hotel room, on his daily walk to the "mall" where they go to eat lunch. I cannot help but feel so blessed to be living in this great country. This trip to India is a definite adventure for Chris, but the stories he has told make me realize just how lucky we are. I feel so fortunate to live in a country where I can safely walk down my clean street. More importantly I live in the country where the true gospel of Jesus Christ was restored, and I have the privilege of worshipping Him freely and openly. Despite the economic turmoil, political mayhem, and day to day turbulence, we are truly blessed to live in this great Nation.

I can so relate to this post. After serving a mission in Romania I pretty much kissed the ground when I got back to the US. And India looks much more impoverished than Romania. I get pretty defensive now if people bash on America...it is a great nation, just like you said.

I'm grateful to live in America too. We're very lucky! I hope you're holding up being on your own.
