Since the first moment I stepped foot into Haiti in August 2003, I knew that Haiti was destined to be part of my life. I spent one year as a volunteer teacher in PAP in 04-05. As time moved on, my destiny with Haiti took the form of falling in love and marrying my husband, David. We live in MT with our daughter Isemaëlla, We immigrated his 2 kids, Davensky and Carry to join our family last March. Life as I know it changes daily. My husband always tells me to write. Here we go!

Markings of Time
Tonight, I am sitting in a hotel room in Salt Lake City, Utah while my husband (guess I was too busy getting married to update my blog recently, huh?!?) is playing in Miami, Florida. I am in SLC for my annual NASAFACS meeting. Last May, the meeting was held in Raleigh, NC. When I went to Raleigh, it was just a few weeks before my first trip to Haiti after the earthquake. It was before I saw David for the first time in three years. Wow, how life has changed in the past year. And, all for the better! I can honestly say although the road was bumpy at times, God brought David and I to the right place at the same time, and we are happily married. I cannot imagine my life without him. I think about how unsure I was about life and my purpose last May, and now, I feel so many questions have been answered in such a short period of time. Yes, I realize there are many more things in store for us as we grow old together. But, for the time being, we will just enjoy being newlyweds (albeit long distance) and let life happens as it may . . . together.
