Updates in another country
Today is a beautiful day here in our country! Y'all are sleeping right now. Today we might go to the park. Well, I'm not so sure. It's been raining the last couple days and rain is in the weather fo a while so today might be a good day to go.It's kind of like an asian six flags but much much smaller!!!!! If we don't do that we'll probably do some sight seeing in the mountains or go to the market and buy some things for our house.
I haven't gone through culture shock yet and I don't know if I will. Praise God!! Earlier today someone asked me what I really liked about this country. I said that I thought it was beautiful and that I thought the people and the language they speak is beautiful.
Katibeth, I can tell, is really dealing with transition. She's having a hard time sharing with other peole her age,but she is making asian friends. They talk to each other in their own language like they understand each other. It's a good way for her to learn.
Marshall has a good friend here too. Although they're a million years apart. He helps him around the farm. I have made friends with our helper that cleans our house and tells us what's safe. Both of these friends talk no english. We sill communicate though. I'm learing a lot of their language this way. It's really fun.
Well, I gotta go our helper fixed us lunch and she tells me I need to get of and eat. :o) I'll try to update soon. We're busy a lot so forgive me if I don't

i've searched for about an hour tonight looking for this since i heard that u had it. mel and i were VERY glad to find it. I'm so glad to hear how you are doing. and to hear how M and KB are. How's your mom and dad? I miss u all so much. Not a lot is happening here. I was thinking about you all when i went to Mr. Colossians soccer game. It was the 1st one! The score was 3-6. Oh how i was reminded of you all there. I can't wait to keep reading and hear how you are learning and being taught. You're such a beautiful young woman and i love you so much!

p.s. Just in case you want to think about it: my dad had a heart attack tonight(don't worry, it was very minor and he's fine) but it could get worse if a bypass is needed. I'll keep ya informed, and let your parents know.
