Forgot...

I forgot to mention two very important things. We got a chance to see Joel Reimer and crew this past Monday. They DROVE in from Poipet, just to give us books that they brought back for Logos from Canada! So kind. Josh Peters is out helping for a few weeks, a YWAMer named Jason was along for the ride, and we got to meet Rochelle Schellenberg! (Joyce take note!) What a great girl. We have an open invitation to the Schellenberg family who is coming out around Christmas, to stay at our place if they want, for as long as they want. We all went out to dinner with some Logos staff to thank them for making the trips, just for us, to bring the books out. It was great to see them all. Joel is well and working extremely hard. They could only crash at our place one night, then get back to business, but they sure treated our kids great--Josh horsing around with Maya (she fell in love, I think), Rochelle chattin it up with Steph (and LEs) and Joel playing volleyball with Julia. These are truly great people who are all our here for the SOUL purpose of serving JEsus. We were blessed to have them for a short visit.

ALso, this is a big thing for our family: Maya is officially swimming. She got brave in the weeks before school, putting her head under, working with Dean, she finally took her waterwings off, and no lifejacket, and really swam to him. Mostly all underwater, but not touching on the bottom! If any of you know what her swimming history has been, I've honestly wondered if this day would ever come, and it's really nothing short of a miracle for her to lost her fear. Littly Suzie's growing up!

Anyways, wanted to mention those two things as well, considering their importance. Please keep reading as I posted a new blog last night, underneath this one, so don't miss it.
