Mi Vida Dulce ( My Sweet Life) is a place for me to write about my time and experiences in this beautiful country of Spain where we will be stationed for the next 3-4 years.
I've been here all of 3 days. Quickly I'll share with you what I like so far:
1. Coffee con leche (coffee with milk), just the right amount of coffee with just the right amount of milk and sugar.
2. Sitting at an outdoor cafe on a cobblestone street admiring the beautiful people, babies, strollers, and culture pass by me.
3. Breezy, beach weather.
4. Hanging my clothes out to dry.
5. Tile work everywhere.
6. Genuine friendliness of the Americans and Spaniards alike.
7. Relaxed way about everyone around me.
8. Making purchases with euros feels like I'm buying houses in Monopoly...not spending real money.
9. Calming sounds of the Spanish language makes me want to learn more, fast.
10. Sharing all this with my husband and children.
Honestly, is that a SWEET LIFE or what?
Thank you Lord for bringing us here to a beautiful part of your world, created by You. You continue to work out details I hadn't even thought about myself. Thank You for Your protection during our travels and provision for our family's needs. May our time here bring You glory and honor. Amen.
I am so glad you made it home safely with your sweet babies. I can't wait to hear about all your adventures in Spain! I am sure Matt is so glad you are all together again. Have a great time in your new country! Miss you!
ReplyDeletelove it! I'm so glad you are sharing your adventures with us. Surely everyone is not more friendly over there than the southerners here!:) Miss you!
