It’s the little things

It really is the little things.  You may remember our adventures last year – a little tiny latch on our van broke, and caused a lot of trouble!

Our van is once again having "little" problems.  This time it was the driver side seat belt.  The latch was getting a little worn, and was coming loose.  Obviously, this could render the seat belt useless, so we took it in to be looked at.

How much did we spend fixing the problem?  Over $200!  And the mechanic was generous enough not to charge us for all the labour time.  Ouch!

There also seems to be a problem with one of the doors, and it looks like we may need a couple of new tires.  We need your prayers as we deal with these little things.

These days we’re enjoying some good little things too.  Hannah and I made a pomander yesterday, a fun Christmas activity for us.  Today we’re looking forward to seeing some of Shari’s family, including the smallest member Ashlyn.  We weren’t sure that Shari’s parents were going to be joining us, but they have arrived.  The weather is cooling off (it was around 15C/60F earlier this week, but today only 8C/46F), but probably not cool enough for snow.  But that’s a typical Calgary Christmas.

We hope you’re having a great weekend, enjoying the good little things and trusting God in the bad little things (and big ones too!).
