If you click on this picture, read the picture captions. Drew is doing so well in school. He loves it. It's short, and he's already reminding us to do stuff for his class. It reminds me that we need to be so much more purposeful in what we are teaching him from day to day.
Joseph is now benefitting from my mom's expert teaching experience. If you haven't seen Joe in the last month you would be amazed at how he is blossoming. I know it's a cliché, but that's just how it is. A few months a go his personality was wrinkly, scrunched up, and not nearly as nice as it could have been. He's still got his little devious streak, but he is communicating so well. He is happy, he loves people, and tells them often.
Harley has been sick. She hasn't nursed in two days. Heidi is a little scared. She's not ready to stop nursing. So we're hoping it's just congestion. Our boys both nursed until they were one, and they quit on their own.
I'm excited about the possibility of becoming a youth pastor at my parents church (our church too, but we haven't been there long.) I'm not giving up on my photojournalism dreams, but I am following where the Lord is leading.
We are also trying to get 100 people to give us $20 dollars a month for the next three year. That way would could pay off my student loans quickly and save well over $30,000 dollars. The ultimate goal is to get to Mali, start a media ministry over there, and serve a country of people who know what it means to suffer.
