Hard to Believe…..

Posted: September 9, 2010 in Uncategorized

It’s hard to believe that 5 weeks have passed since we last saw HOME.   We have had some very interesting moments so far.  The last few weeks have been very busy.  We have had so many people come to Sahiwal since we have arrived in August, and are expecting more this fall.  God is good!

Christian is doing fine in boarding school.  He is enjoying his time to himself (without us), although Wendy and I feel “cracked”.  We are having a tough time not seeing our boy every day.  He calls us on Monday nights and has lots to tell us.   I think he is doing okay in school.  They “complain” that he is a little too laid back…..  hmmm really?????

The other 3 are doing fine with homeschooling.  Jesse and I play volleyball almost every night.  He is really getting good at it, as long as I can keep him from slipping and hitting like a Pakistani…. :(  Other than this, we are okay.  We have expanded our menu selections, so we have more choices (less Pakistani meals and more homestyle meals).

We are almost finished with the Ramadan season and Eid is approaching, life will get back to normal.  We are being a little more cautious during these days because of a misguided fool in Florida, but other than that.. We are used to being cautious due to the misguided fools in Washington, but not in Florida…..  We will be okay… Prayerfully, 9/11 will pass, and there won’t be much to discuss next week.

Wendy is settling in okay.  She told me she is settling in a little better this time.  We are all working harder to make life more like normal.  She brought some western clothes, and wears them on Thursday so she can have some “normalcy” to her life.  We let the help off on Thursday so she can have  ”be free to be me” days.

Interesting life we lead, and the stories we will be able to tell our grandkids, and great grands!  I look forward to telling them about God’s grace and about the wonderful world he has made.

Gotta run,

Peace and Blessings to all!
