About Me

My photo
This blog is my musings and reflections on my life’s journey as a follower of Christ, a working mother, a wife, a friend, a daughter, a sister, a graduate student, and other roles that I embrace along the way. Other than grappling with my life’s multiple demands and dilemmas, improving my writing skills and boosting my creativity, I hope to have my jottings create resonance and initiate thought and feeling in those who will follow and read my blog.

Jurrasic park in Kyiv


Fall is not my favorite season. In Ukraine the sun usually disappears behind the clouds some time mid-October and we don’t see it until March. But I like the beginning of fall.Those spells of warm weather, when it is neither too warm, nor too cold, are perfect for family outings. Last weekend was just one of those times when all the Welches could be perfectly comfortable outside, without sweating or freezing too much.

My parents were in town. It was my sister’s birthday weekend. And to top it all, on Saturday morning, we all went to one of the largest gardens in Kiev that was transformed into Jurassic Park. See more info here:   http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/42517/  There it was - an exhibition of dinosaurs! Some were small, some were up to six meters tall, and some were up to thirty meters long. The kids had a blast. They definitely know more about dinosaurs than I do and could appreciate the exhibition more. It was fun watching them run around in amazement of all the sizes and shapes of those creatures. We finished the outing with a picnic lunch and a huge ball of cotton candy. Here are some pictures from our walk in the park:

good enough at this stage of our life!
