Sheila



a "formal introduction" is long overdue.
Sheila - a name that i've mentioned multiple times these past few months.
my partner in crime in bangladesh.
my roomie.
my co-worker.
my friend.
blog-sphere...meet sheila.

we joined the staff of WMF at the same time and have been at language school together.
we've been getting to know one another - and beginning to learn what it means to share life with one another (in deep ways, and in fun ways).
we've been laughing.
we've been playing games.
we've been cooking.
we've studied.
we've cried.

it's the beginning. we're gonna be sharing life very practically for the next 3 years at least. living together. working together...the fun stuff, and the hard stuff too.

oh sheila...she's a gift. a treasure. i'm amazed at how much i like her, love her and have fun with her...and seriously, its only the beginning.

also, she has a blog. its linked to the left, but you can also find it at www.snyoder.blogspot.com

You know, you girls could be sisters! I've often thought you look alike! Thanks Melissa for you! For being there to walk with Sheila through this whole "India" experience!...that she doesn't have to walk it alone, and neither do you! Love you, even tho' we haven't met! I pray for you as well my dear!

Lem, give Aliehs my best! Glad you have a good friend! I am enjoying getting to know your mom better through a book club that Kathy Riggleman just started.
