Christmas Chronicles

Well, I have finally finished updating the blog with the week of fun with our children. If you skip down 9 posts and read back up the blog posts you will be able to follow our journey with them.

We have had a blessed time this past month and a half as we have "lived on our own" in the house of some special friends who had to return to the states for surgery for their daughter (she is doing great, PRAISE THE LORD!). It was indeed a blessing to be able to rest, relax, entertain, and enjoy our kids in a HOME! They had prayed that God would bless their home while they were away and what a blessing it was!!

We are now at home again. It is such a blessing to live with Daisy and Rodolfo, especially when we are in school - think no laundry, no cooking, no cleaning - as we are able to solely concentrate on studies. God has given us a special gift of love as we enjoy friendship with them. They welcomed us home as family when we returned Monday.

School begins next Monday...we are spending this week finishing some relaxing journies around town and reviewing before we bring our FINAL trimester of language study! Now is NOT the time to slack up in praying for us...we still have MUCH to learn and bring together in our minds and tongues.

Please pray for absorbant minds with just the right amount of pressure to make our tongues fluid! We are down to less than FOUR months!! Guatemala is just around the bend...
