They intend to go back - but their medical progress will be the determining factor. Their bodies are badly broken...<BR/><BR/>How is your painting coming along? I would love to see your pieces in person! Have a fabulous holiday, and kiss those 3 little munchkins for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05743900480139515536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981842043164199296.post-26699957918397466682008-08-13T07:49:00.000-06:002008-08-13T07:49:00.000-06:00Hi Michelle,I too hope that this auction is a huge...Hi Michelle,<BR/>I too hope that this auction is a huge success.

God bless you, Good Samaritan. I know you have tended my wounds a time or two when I have been the one lying beside the road hurting and bleeding. <BR/><BR/>May your painting be the healing oil rubbed into the wounds this couple has endured. May it raise a crapload of money so that this couple can go back to Kenya and show what forgiveness really looks like, and may their forgiveness of their attackers radically change the face of the world. We need more people working for peace like these saints are through their act of undeserved forgiveness.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981842043164199296.post-58809792953548665792008-08-11T21:50:00.000-06:002008-08-11T21:50:00.000-06:00What a beautiful piece for a beautiful cause.

When you come for coffee, you won't see Sunflowers hanging on the wall. It sold the beginning of this month. It looks great in its new home though. :-)<BR/><BR/>Tell Liam I love his enthusiastic response to art! The boy is pretty good at picking things of value - look at who he chose for his mommy.
