{Foster Daughter Anita on the Other Side of the World}

It has been FIFTEEN years now, since we last went to Indonesia for work... And also it has been SEVEN years, since Anita last did stay with us here in Georgia/USA and traveled with us to The Netherlands and to Germany...
Never easy for staying in touch as they are 12 hours ahead of us.
Only 11 hours in summer time...
When Anita is already starting her day, we are still left in the dark...
Even Europe is still asleep!
To the left of the red word Anita you can see Jakarta, Indonesia's capital and she lives near Semarang
We always did fly in to Jakarta and on to Yogyakarta which is on the south coast of Java.
Semarang is on the north coast, as you can see here above...
That's where we are, in Georgia/USA and we're just tiny people on this big world and far apart but oh so close at heart!
Anita always has been a loyal and loving daughter; touching her Mama's heart when needed most.
When I lost my Mom, she was with me through it all in thoughts and prayers—she supported me big time.
From my legal 'step-daughter Liz Vedder' not a single word...
Liz obviously follows a different moral compass.

May God bless Anita, manyfold and I leave all other things into His hands!

Thanks for your visit!

    With Google you can see the distances very well.

    I know how you feel as my family is 13 hours (14 hours in winter) ahead!
    Anita is such a beautiful lady, both inside and outside. Caring, sweet and you are close at heart, which matters the most :-)

    Wonderful that Anita keeps close to you even though she lives so far away. It's difficult to keep in touch when the family is spread out around the globe. I know the feeling Mariette.
    Have a wonderful weekend.
