| My wife holding "little" Tam Sue |
After a great holiday weekend and looking forward to a day off on Monday, my wife discovered early that this would be no day off. Her phone rang a little before 8 a.m. and it was Shun Nun Tun one of the ladies from our Karen ministry who is pregnant. She asked my wife to take her to the hospital. So my wife called Tamaner another Karen lady in our church and cancelled her plans with her that day. Tamaner asked my wife if she would like her to come with her to take Shun Nun Tun to the hospital. So my wife readily accepted since Tamaner is one of our interpreters in our Karen ministry and Shun Nun Tun's English is limited. My wife speaks some Karen, but Tamaner made things easier for my wife to communicate between the hospital staff and the would be mother. By afternoon time Shun Nun Tun and her husband were the proud parents of a beautiful baby girl.
When it came time to fill out the paper work for the name, the parents asked my wife to fill it out and to name the girl after herself. My wife's name is Tamara Sue, but I often call her Tam Sue. So the parents decided that would be the name. So now our church has gained another Tam Sue. Praise God for the opportunity to serve and love people and influence their lives for God!
