God's goodness

Lots of things have been happening in the Tukurah household lately that were definitely putting our faith to the test.
But one thing I have learned in the past weeks is that God never forsakes His own. He has proved himself faithful over and over again and He will surely finish the good work that He started.
Just a note of encouragement to anyone going through stuff right now. God did not bring you so far to abandon you :)

Funny story

Hey hey hey

Just had to share a really funny story that happened to us the other day. The weather was just so beautiful in this unpredictable Ohio so we decided to make a trip to the local park and enjoy it. As we were pulling out onto the road, I noticed that a lady in a purple minivan was signalling at Musa trying to get his attention but I thought nothing of it. I just thought she was some lady who though she had the right of way or something and was trying to cuss us out. Anyway, hubby did not notice and I did not say anything either.

I noticed she was following us after a while and still thought nothing of it. I did not mention it to Musa as we were talking about something else in the car.
Anway, as we were pulling into the parking lot of the park, i saw her come in right after us and that was when I started to wonder what was really going on. I was the first one to come out of the car while hubby was trying to get Safiya out of her carseat in the back and the woman was just looking at me and my big pregnant belly so I offered her a smile, unsure of what she was all about. She kept looking until hubby emerged out from the cover of the car and she turned her attention to him. The next words to come out of her mouth had us laughing for the rest of the evening. She said, "Oh I'm sorry. I thought you was my husband." Those were here words verbatim. And then the dear lady drove off. It was too funny.

Here she was probably thinking that her husband was living a double life and he had another woman on the side who had a child and another on the way. I can only imagine what was going though her mind as she followed us thinking she had finally caught her cheating husband red handed and he would not be able to deny the affair.
Ha ha.

Well I am glad she was able to get that off her chest and have her evidence that her husband was not carrying on with another woman, namely me.
Oh but it sure was hilarious for us :)

Technical Difficulties

Sooooooo! My laptop died!!! I'm in mourning. Means I have to go to the library for internet for a while. Will miss my blogging but I'll be back soon I promise. Miracles happen and the dead can be raised again.... or perhaps a new laptop will fall from heaven :)

Laterzzz

Snowed In!!!

We are snowed in here in Cincinnati today! Unbelievable I tell you. About 10 inches of snow fell in 24hours. Thankfully, no one has anywhere to go. So we are all curled up and waiting for the sun to shine again :)
