sweet memories


apologize for the blurriness of this photo but....this lady is a very dear friend of mine! her name is Sylvia, and she is the teacher of the sewing classes here at the James Place. she is such a joy to be around and is always encouraging me with words of Truth! her smile is literally contageous. 
there is something about Sylvia that reminds me so much of my mom! 
maybe it's her passion and enjoyment she finds in sewing?! 
this is why i love Africa. meeting and becoming friends with beautiful souls who radiate light and life and love!
this evening Juliana and i took botas to Main Street (the nearby town area) to visit Sylvia in her shop! 
it was the perfect end to a great, great day....being surrounded by sewing machines, unfinished dresses and loads of fabrics....those of you who knew my mother know that today i had more than a few flashbacks!! 
remembering my mom, sitting in her rolling chair in her sewing room, singing her heart out as she sewed on a PoppyDip dress. ah, sweet memories! thank you, Jinja! thank you, Father God!!!
