Happy Birthday Mommy!

-






 This year, like for so many others, is a very different year. And it was wonderful to be able to celebrate my birthday with my family and close friends. Thank you God for your faithfulness and blessing me with health and your peace and love and joy. And the family you gave me.

 
 
Hubby decided to take me (and the kids) out for a romantic birthday dinner to the restaurant where we celebrated our 10th year wedding anniversary - Vittoria Tratoria. Well, it was a very different experience with Ellu and Elkana lol! Let's just say the other people at the restaurant did not have a "quiet" dinner hahaha, with Elkanah saying HI HI HI to them all until they said hi in return! And also, the salmon was a bit dry than I remember it a few years ago, but still a nice restaurant. Neguissie loved his spicy macaroni and Eliakim was disappointment that they did not have fries or chicken nuggets lol.



Ori has also made this birthday special by taking me to Nordik Spa again this year. We both got to enjoy a 1 hr relaxing massage which was nice. I hope to come back again next year (for longer than 1hr :))

Eliakim's Soccer

So I finally got Eliakim enrolled in soccer during the summer and he was on the timbits team in Riverside South with Ottawa United Soccer. He enrolled a few classes late, but none the less, he enjoyed it! He made some friends and learned soccer skills, but having him on a sports team was really fun to watch! I hope to continue in the following years, enrolling him in sports activities that he will enjoy! We will see if soccer remains one of them :)

2021 Kingston Family Vacay

My absolute blessings. When we drove into Kingston, I saw an outlet mall that I wanted to go to when we returned. On our way back to Ottawa, we stopped by and it was much smaller than I thought but they had some pretty sweet deals. I bought 2 winter jackets for $20/each and clothes for the kiddos. I even got some work clothes for myself :) Two of my favourite men. So, about this night...we decided to go out in the town. But no one really knew where to go. We all got in our cars and drove around downtown Kingston. There was absolutely no parking downtown, and since no one had a specific plan to go anywhere, Ori and I wanted to eat dessert somewhere...but we all ended up back at the hotel. There was a decent restaurant at the hotel so we ordered poutine, what we were craving. They didn't have it on the menu but said they would make it for us. This is what it was. Ok, but not the real thing. BEST WESTERN hotel with the kiddos! They had a blast spending time with eachother in our room,

My Birthdate

 It is 12:08am on Wednesday August 31, 2022 and I am officially 38!!! Ahhh, when I think about the number it scares me a little bit...where did the time fly??? But I am ever so grateful for everything that God has allowed in my life and I have to reflect and share. Where do I even begin? 38 years of God's mercy and favour, protection and love over my life. He has blessed me with wonderful, God fearing, selfless, wise, kind and hardworking parents. I pray for God's continual blessings over them and their lives! AMEN Then, Neguissie, a husband that God gave me, to love and live with and share life with. Share 2 beautiful children with - Eliakim and Elkanah, God's blessings and precious gifts to us.  He has blessed me with a beautiful family and amazing and wonderful siblings, Selam and Zelalem; extended family like Titi and Radney and Ori, and countless friends and family. And countless other things...to God be all the glory. I would not be here today if it was not for God. H
