Isaiah 43:1-3, 7, 10-13
But now, this is what the LORD says— he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior... Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth—everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.... “You are my witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me. I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior. I have revealed and saved and proclaimed—I, and not some foreign god among you. You are my witnesses,” declares the LORD, “that I am God. Yes, and from ancient days I am he. No one can deliver out of my hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”

Welcome to Cochabamba!
Our first few days in Cochabamba were very relaxing. We spent the majority of our time recuperating from our miserable flight, and adjusting to the altitude of 9,000 feet. We stayed in the Hotel Regina, which had comfortable suites complete with kitchenette. We had a beautiful view of the city from the eighth floor.
It is very green here as it has been raining every day! But the temperature is pleasant and we are enjoying walking and being outside so much. Michaela is especially enjoying the fact that she doesn’t have to ride in a carseat anymore, but spends here time riding in her sling, her stroller, or on our laps in buses and taxis. The flowers and the mountains are magnificent, and I enjoyed watching the rain clouds drift down from the hills from our eighth story window. We also enjoyed sampling a variety of different restaurants in the area, including the Cochabambino version of the Olive Garden! MMMM!

Well, seeing my cute little nieces to pieces with that roll of duct tape makes me proud. You know that's a good sign. She's going to very resourceful. Laura said that it's a true sign of an MK. Don't let make the same mistake that I did once and use up all of Babu's duct tape.
Actually, I tought some friend's baby ,that was 1 &1/2, how to say "DUCT TAPE." He totally got down, "Duh ta." They said that when they shared his new word with his grandmother she couldn't stop laughing.
