Wow! I can't believe it has been 6 months since we began this chapter in our lives. There are times when I look back and it seems like it has been a week. Whether it is because there are still so many things I am still learning and still need to learn or that we are just enjoying ourselves so much that time just flies. I am sure it is a good mixture of both. Then there are times that I feel like it has been forever that we have been here. That happens on days where nothing is going according to plan and discouragement fights its way in. At those times, the struggle seems particularly pronounced and small things that usually seem charming reach in to tip your glass until it's half empty. Luckily those times are few and far between. The other times it feels like we have been here longer is when we take time to look at the relationships we have developed here. There is a neat community of people that have taken different places in our lives, each one different and each one adding one more building block to our lives here.
Six months, on one hand seems short in the grand scheme of things but on the other hand is a fun milestone to commemorate. We are so thankful to God for calling us here and blessing us with so many amazing support people both here and abroad. We are also so thankful to each of you who support our work here, keep in touch with us, read our blog...etc. Each one of your plays an important part in our journey. I love this journey that we are on and am honored to have each one of you along with us. I am also beyond proud of Carolyn, Alex, Abby, Calli and Cameron for the amazing way they have adapted in a situation that is anything but easy. I am honored and humbled to be partnered with such an amazing team. Thanks guys. Blessings!
