New Hobby

For the last few months or so I have been telling my husband that I need to find some kind of new hobby.  My mind is constantly focused on Rwanda and I could use a distraction from it.  Life does go on even though my heart is in another place.  Also, I think it drives many people in my life crazy since all I want to talk about is Rwanda, orphan care, adoption, etc.  The good thing about constantly having Rwanda on my mind is that I have a very dedicated prayer life at the moment.  As I have searched for a cost effective hobby that wouldn't take time away from my family and homeschooling, I've haven't found much.  Everything cost money. =(  But on the brighter side, I did find something to do that would give me money. =)  I now take care of my sweet nephew, who I truly enjoy loving to pieces.  Isn't he cute:
