This week has been a strange week as we had 2 bank 
holidays in it! That means we had both Monday (1st May) and Thursday (Redeclartion of Independence) off work. For me this means that I got to spend much more time with Zoe & Sian than I normally would.
At the moment almost every time we turn round Sian is saying a new word or doing something that she hasn’t done before! It’s easy now to see why people say children grow up so fast.
Working the way we do Zoe & I manage to spend far more time with Sian than we would if we were stuck in our old jobs back in England. I’m convinced that this is just another blessing that God is bestowing on us because of the commitment we’ve made to Him. She is so beautiful, clever and loving that even the most frustrating times are worth every moment!
With my forthcoming trip to the Ice Hockey World Championship final now only 15 days away Latvia are still in with a chance (although highly unlikely one) of reaching one of the 2 matches I’ll be watching. I suspect however that I won’t be cheering on our adopted home team. Even so though Latvia managed a highly creditable 1-1 draw with the Czech Republic last night, with the Latvian goalie saving an amazing 30 saves!
This weekend also sees my football club (Lincoln City) needing only a draw to grab the last play-off place in League 2. If they manage it will be the fourth successive season and maybe this year it’ll be our turn to be promoted!
Whatever happens to either team it is amazing how we can get so passionate about the sports teams we support, but so few Christians manage to exhibit the same sort of passion in their expression of faith. Why is that?
