We're Still Alive

For those of you wondering, we are still alive. . . just very busy. It is my hope to keep up the blog while we're away, but the posts will definitely be sparse in the upcoming weeks. We're heading out on August 16th, and Stephen's classes will begin on the 25th. In between, I have a ladies' luncheon, and we have orientation as a couple. From what many have alluded to, we will be busy. Unless you hear otherwise, just assume everything is peachy-keen.

The pc wives have been communicating via e-mail, and I have also been in contact with the family we will be living with. From the few conversations I have had with the wife, I have already learned from her godly example.

Some funny goings-on:

Charis has now mastered the forward army crawl. Not only that, but she does a funny split thing to get from sitting to a creeping position. I'll have to get a picture of it.

She has learned how to play peek-a-boo and blow kisses, but often does not fully execute. Therefore, she's often at the dinner table with her hands over her eyes for 10 minutes because she's forgotten the release.

my husband is a computer geek :-)
So have you guys discussed what church service you will be going to during the school year? Early or late?

Jen said...

Beth,
Well, like you said, look at who I'm married to. Both apply.

Megan,
Good to know. We're leaning toward late if Charis is still taking her morning nap. And you?

Megan said...

Oh yeah, morning nap. Izzy usually naps around 1:00, so that might be cutting it close for the late service, but we might try both just to see.

No spoligies needed. Even if you were not leaving for PC, you guys are busy with all that is important in life.
I am so glad that in Sovereign Grace language, "pc" does not mean politically corect, rather it means "Projecting Christ",which is what Pastor's College desires. Praying for you all and knowing that you will be faithfull contributors to the College and community fellowship. Charis alone will be taking Gaithersburg by storm!
We will miss you and praying you through the coming months until you return.....

Frank,

Thanks so much for your kind words. We appreciate your encouragement. And I must agree, Charis will surely be taking Gaithersburg by storm!

We will miss you as well!
