WE ARE FLYING BACK TO THE PHILIPPINES TODAY!!
The day has finally come, today is the day we fly to the Philippines. We have been so extremely busy for the last month I forgot to post something for May, so I really am sorry.
JJ graduated 8th grade on May 21 then went to Washington DC for a History class trip. He had a fun time touring the historic DC area, exploring the museums and watching the changing of the guards. They even went to a ghost tour the last night they were there. We are so glad he got to do that before leaving for the Philippines.
Meanwhile Michael and I were busy emptying (again?) our short lease apartment unit. We once more donated some more stuff, gave some away, throw some away until nothing was left and the apartment finally was cleared....whew. Life in America is all about stuff!!
We are staying at Mike's sister's house until we fly out and while we're there it's good to be able to spend time with Mom and Dad and our oldest son, Josh who lives nearby. We left Zach in Topeka, where he lives and work but we've spent time with him while we can while we were there, although I would have loved to have more time with him. But work gets in the way all the time so we're just happy to have him once in a while as his time permits.
I have prayed over both Josh and Zach, that the Lord will continue to keep them both in His care. And I know I serve a faithful Father so I am confident that He will take care of them. He is our Jehovah Nissi, the Lord our Banner!
Michael thinks our finances should allow us to come and visit every two years so I'm glad we can do that. Then we will see some of you again in two years. And until then, may the Lord keeps us all in His care until we see each other again. We love you all and we thank you for following us.
Please continue to follow us as we journey into the new season of our life in the Philippines.
