Two months and counting





Well, we've hit the two month mark, and while we've had our share of adjustments, I'd say we are still doing fine. Some of us are definitely able to relax more than others. I'll let you guess who's who. We each have our times of frustration, for sure. The boys seem to be doing well in school, but sometimes I wonder...While asking them before bed last night if they were ready for another week of school, one burst into tears and said that he doesn't want to go. He said he likes meeting new friends, but just wishes he could talk to them. Jaylin often talks about wanting to go home. Today it was "Grandma Klaus's" pool that she missed. Gage often misses fishing off of Grandpa Jim's dock, and everyone misses friends!

The two snow pictures here are included to show just how long we have been enjoying winter this year. The first snow scene is from our training time at MTI in Colorado where we celebrated the first snow of the season in October! Now we are still "enjoying" snow here in March. Needless to say, our family is ready for Spring!

We are so appreciative of the prayers of all of our family and friends. Thank you for praying for our continued adjustments. The frustrations often come in little, random situations, that are too small to even write home about. Funny how they seem so big as we are experiencing them. We are extremely thankful for the many blessings that God has graciously given us throughout this move. It is amazing to look back at the details of the past year and be in awe of God's miraculous provisions for us time and time again. Thank you for praising Him with us for these blessings!

So cool to see pictures and updates. It's fun to be connected. Sheri's kids enjoyed talking to all of you the other day. It's great that Skype makes you guys seem closer. We are continuing to pray that God will give you little break throughs and great encouragement. We love you. Dad and Mom
