Before we eat fruits and veggies, we wash them super well- first in tap water, then soak them in bleach water, and finally rinse them in filtered water…these strawberries were just beautiful in their little bathtub!
Marie helps us in the house as we battle the dust of the Sahara, washing everything we eat, and freezing treats like carrots and strawberries to hopefully enjoy more than one month of the year! We are so thankful that the Lord brought her to us. She is an answer to much prayer and we enjoy and appreciate her presence in our life.
This week, Marie asked if she could ask me a question…it's kind of a joke, because I ask her about a hundred questions a day- about language, fashion, culture, Christianity, being a woman in Africa…
"What are the red things in the refrigerator?"
It was such a joy to share our special strawberries with her! She knew the word, and had tasted strawberry flavored candy, but she'd never eaten the real thing!
She loved them!
