Last week we got some exciting news. Usually the post will send packages straight to our house, but for some reason they stopped doing so a few months ago without telling us about it.
So somehow we found out last week that there were 3(!) packages waiting for us at the post office.
They came on a day we really needed some encouragement so the Lord timed it perfectly.
Our co-workers who are currently back in Norway blessed us with some awesome stuff.
Pretty clothes for the kids, special sweets, cute decorations and...
... lots of licorice for Erlend (he was THRILLED!)
Alia, Kila and Elisabeth where excited about the special candy necklaces
A sweet family from our church in Germany also sent us a package with a lot of good quality, cute clothes that their son has out grown. Max fits into most of them already.
Vielen Dank, Richters!
I am not trying to say that you should send us a package (not saying that you shouldn't either :-)), but if you want to be an encouragement to somebody who works overseas, why not ask them what food or things they are missing from home, put them in a box and send them their way. What an easy way to make somebodies day.
