Eli & Amia’s Beach Party

My daughter LOVES the beach. Last Saturday, we were able to hit the beach for the first time this year, and Em’s behavior gave the impression that we’ve deprived her for life.

We helped celebrate Eli and Amia’s birthdays in a joint beach party, filled with plentiful food, under gracious tents that blocked the generous sunshine. It was really a perfect day for a party since there was wind amidst the sun.

Seeing friends at a beach party, with food, and an overjoyed toddler, sitting under a shade and hearing the beach chatter is just really calming. It made me very thankful that we came, esp. seeing Em so happy covering herself with sand and teasing the waves.

But a behemoth thanks to the Frago family for inviting us!! We had a great time. (see right: Em & Eli)

New Year 2018

What tremendous blessings and milestones in the Ababa family! We praise God for His grace in provision and favor. May our family continue to be a vessel for His glory.

We bought a new house! We praise God for giving us hope and peace as we had to simultaneously sell our previous home. It was a nail biting experience, but God’s provision and timing were perfect. Perze’s enjoying the gadgets and toys that come with owning a single family home like going green with solar panels + rechargeable electric equipment.

Elle is in her 1st year of school! She knows all her classmates’ names, is now reading, + 2 out of 5 days falls asleep on the bus ride home. She has recently been chosen to participate for a peer modeling group. One of her favorite hobbies is reading, + one of her favorite series is the "Little People, Big Dreams".

Emma is taking her 1st year of French, joined the chess club, is taking performance art, and is part of her school choir, 7/8th grade orchestra, + chamber ensemble. She is incredibly outgoing when it comes to auditioning, joining different musical ensembles, and has such a strong interest in performing. She helps her dad sing during his praise sets.

Changing schools for Zienne has been an positive experience, as she has found her social niche + is one of the top readers and math students of her class. Zi's hobbies include anything creative, making crafts, arts.
