A Sunny Sabbath Day

Every 3rd Sabbath of the month, the YEC has a special class for the little children. The class is consist of Japanese children and Americans kids, they learn together the Lord.

Psalm 139:1
Oh Lord, you have searched me and known me.

God knows everything about me/us even the my hairs.

God loves me all the time even sometimes we are grumpy and not nice but God wanted us to be nice and good all the time.

Who knows what I am gonna say?

My kitty Misty


I am so sad to think that after having Misty for 6 months here at home. I developed a bad allergies and am taking medicine for more than 2 months now. She is our first family pet. I feel so sad that I will ask someone to adopt her or even giving it back to PAWS. My daughter really loves her, you can see it in the photo. We love to play with her. If any of the visitors on this page like her and wanted to give her a new home. Pls let me know. All the stuff we bought, all will go with her. We have a cat tree and she loves to be up there and looking down to us.

Our cat and life of a homeschool family

I decided that I only seen or having get together with friends once a week. I can call myself "busy beauty" :)), Being a homeschool family, I can't compare myself with other Moms that stayed at home while their children went to school. Oh I just missed those times that my house is spotty clean. This time, I really need to talk to my kids and race up who can clean our bedroom first. ---- and get the rewards.

Life of a mother, we are busy taking care of our children. If they went to school then you gotta help them with homework and other related school stuff. Feeding them and taking care of our kids if they are sick- so we became like a nurse. When kids is at school or home, mothers are busy cleaning after their mess and so we became like a maidservant. Well, what about if your kids are homeschool. Life is a little bit difficult than those mothers that their kids are at regular school. Can you ever think? I find everything is so hard and needs lots of sacrifices. For me, I can say. I salute to those families that they are homeschooling their children. Aside that they are willing to sacrifice their time in teaching their kids- they are also sacrificing their other hobbies. But I like my kids to learn the stuff that I learn.

As of this moment, I think I got stressed out with my allergies and plus we are catching up with our lessons. I got paranoid right now, I even vacuum walls..... We tried to take Misty back to PAWS but they wont take it if there is no doctor's note. So, I went ahead and made an appointment and got a note. I even asked my doctor that I wanted to have a diabetes test. I am afraid that I have- it runs in my family at my mother's side.

We tried to put Misty at Japanbase.com and even in yokosuka4sale.com. We are looking for a new home for her- if you knew anyone that wanted to adopt her. Please let me know. We will pay for her vaccination on June and all the stuff we bought for her - ALL will go with her. I feel bad, after that she is comfortable with us--- THERE! I got paranoid because of allergies :((. Mary is so sad but I dont wanna take medicine the whole time of my life that we have a cat.

Our Sabbath service here at Yokosuka base in Japan

We are having a service here, it's 2nd Sabbath of the month.

Chaplain Mills lead in getting prayers request and praises. My husband really like the way he did on the prayers that he did not repeated the request because God already heard it. I mean God heard it when we were talking that this is our request to God. The reason I know, God is omnipotent, he is everywhere.

Behavior at church: Mary is talking while Chaplain Mills deliver his message.
Children story by Chaplain Bob Mills
Chaplain Mills continued his story about Harley, a 9 year old that live in Bethsaida. He wanted to see Jesus. At this time, Jesus is at the temple and saw that people sells many stuff like animals and many more. Jesus was angry and let all the animals go, people were running away from temple. Children did not go anywhere but Jesus gathered them and tell. Temple is not a place of making money but a place of learning and grow about God.

Chaplain Mills is giving his message for the divine service.
Look for John 4:7
The Samaritan is formerly brother to Jewish people. It turns out that they are unfriendly to each other.

Interesting character: a woman came at noon and even not in a normal time of drawing water from the well. She saw Jesus there.

John 4:13,14 - Jesus is not talking about the literal water, as in h2o.
V. 15
V23
V25
If you are reading the story about the Samaritan woman drawing water from the well. Now, you can understand what is the message Jesus wanted for us to learn. In Evangelism, it is not only by word we deliver but also through in our actions and how we deal with our children and other people.

1. met somebody and start a relationship

2. Living without Jesus is empty - there is no satisfaction even how high you are in the society

3. Share what Jesus done to you. How you change your life.

4. Answer the objection biblically. Some people are very critical and wanted to find answers. Try to look answers Biblically. If you can't handle it, find a minister. "It's not what they give up!"

5. Ask Lord for guidance. Especially when God recreated their lives

Then disciples v39 says nothing at all. When they saw Jesus is talking to that Samaritan woman.

A true worship is not limited thru this mountain but in spirit and it's truth. This is what Jesus wanted us to do "I want you to worship me in spirit and it's truth". We are giving our hearts and the minds fully to him. We have so many questions on how.

The service is over, everyone is invited for a pot luck. Everybody is preparing. :))

Let's eat!
Happy Birthday Elizabeth.





At our mess hall- where we ate.
Yum! Food!




Cake with richy yummy toppings

Happy Sabbath everyone and pray for everyone safety as they are going home.

Our cat Misty

My daughter, Mary wanted to have a pet cat because she loves it. I never been associated to cats longer before. We cat sit for 3 weeks but I was thinking that I am fine with it. No allergic reactions.

We have Misty for about 6 months now. On her first night here at home, she slept at my daughter's bed which made my daughter so happy. As what we understand her behavior, she is not used to male and or maybe those male that like dogs, which my husband really loves dog. In the last couple months, she started to sleep in my bedroom and even I heard her purring while looking for a good spot to lie down on the foot side of my bed.

Misty tolerated the behavior of my kids, she always got a lots of hugs and it is ok with her that she is carried all the time. My daughter loves to carry her.

But she likes to climb up closets and even closet door. She is a climber cat.. well cat likes that way.

As for her food, she ate dry and wet food. Brand for her dry is IAMS and she likes fancy feast grilled only. I gave her a can in the morning and evening and she is snacking for dry food. She does not really fun of treats, we bought different kinds of treats for her but she won't eat it, maybe because it is a bit hard. I dunno LOL. But she ate dogs treats. There is dog treats which is 90 cents at the commisary, she likes that. She also likes salmon treats.

Misty has a cat tree- a simple cat tree where she can climb up and look down to us. The bottom part was broken but hubby is going to fix it later today. All the stuff that she has here at home. I like to send it with her. She is a very cute cat and it is hard for me to let her go :((.

I am taking allergy medicine for more than 2 months because my eyes are so itchy and watery. I got paranoid now of vacuuming the house even walls. But still I am itching and sneezing. I even asked my husband to take Misty back to PAWS because we got her there and they won't take it because they needed a doctor's note. I can't find myself taking allergy medicine the whole time that we have a cat at home. So, I force myself to get an appointment and got test done. Yeah, am allergic :((. So sad to think.

At the inner part of my brain, I don't want to let go Misty but when I forgot to take my medicine and got late of taking it for 3 hours. I find myself itching and my eyes are getting red. I always washed my face to take off the allergens. It helps but my allegra medicine helps much.
