How do you get a baby to ASK for a nap? Go for a four hour walk!

Today is Sunday and Jubilee and I went exploring.


I am so far behind and have too much to share, I don’t know where to begin so I will procrastinate beginning for a awhile. Okay, time to start.Jubilee has been amazing. So much fun. So much life. So willing for adventure. Saturday, Sobota, Basia was off work so we headed to Boleslawice (Bole a swav itz) and bought ceramics. The beautiful blue and while pottery that is recognized as a national folk art. Not recognized by the world hitchhiker book. Bummer. Met a woman from Connecticut there. She did not want to be friendly at first. I pressed and it was nice. She ended up needing some translation help and Basia helped.

I bought a tea set. Don’t have a CLUE how I will get it home. Ruthie, if you come join us bring the hard black plastic case filled with bubble wrap. Anita, get ready for tea! I bought a medium large tea pot and several cups and saucers.. One little one for Jubi and some for Anita and Teri and Monika and I to use. I don’t usually use a cup and saucer but THEY WERE SO CUTE! I bought a small set of dishes and a tea set for Jubilee and she already loves it. I put one Jasmine pearl in her teeny tiny tea cup and fill it with teeny tiny hot water. It is so cute. She has four cups and she can hardly wait to have tea with her brothers in the teeny tiny cups.

STORKS!!!! Storks were very important revelation for me when we were here before. The only time I saw LIVING storks was on the way to Boleslawice and this time I saw TWO nest. In the first nest were TWO storks. I got a download about Habakkuk the first time and this time was even better. H talks about being stationed in the watchtower and waiting to SEE what God has to say to him. The first download was of the storks representing the prophetic voice of God’s heart in Poland. How they are revered birds but becoming scarce and often plastic replicas are stations on top of houses because the REAL THING has left. (SIGH! Doesn’t THAT sound familiar). Anyway, Basia pulled over and we jumped out of the car and watched as the two storks SPOKE to each other. IT was an amazing sound, such beautiful voices. There were THREE generations working the yard below the nest. Grandpa, TaTa and a boy about 10 or so. They were cutting grass with a scythe. WOW! It was wonderful. The smell of fresh cut grass was wonderful. The sound of the storks was wonderful. God’s presence was WONDERFUL! I felt giddy. Jubilee saw and heard them. I did not get many photos because in the excitement and because I was holding Jubilee the camera jumped out of my hands and it hit HARD! It stopped working for about five minutes, caught its breath and started again. By then the storks were all snuggied down into the nest so I could not see them. We were sort of “parked” on a blind corner on a very narrow road so we moved on.A few miles later was a second nest with a single stork. OH BACK UP! In the first nest, I am sure it was the nest I saw three years ago, were TWO storks. TWO! Two on the watchtower. Two sharing what they heard of God’s heart. COLLABORATION! BODY WORKING TOGETHER! I was jazzed. I still am jazzed! It was life giving. The entire trip was very good.
