Hello again! I am writing to you from Manila, where we are staying this weekend for the Annual Meeting. All of the missionaries from everywhere in the Philippines get together and have a business meeting, teaching sessions, and spend quality time together. We are staying in a house with two other families, and have a grand total of 8 children here, ranging from 6 weeks to 8 years old! Needless to say, we are having lots of FUN!
John is starting his Berean classes this month, he is working towards his minister's license. This is a goal he has had for a long time, and we are excited that he has this opportunity.
I received my "official" job placement as the teacher for levels 4 and 5. I have 13 students whose ages range from 10 to 19 years old. School starts in two weeks, and I can't wait! I graduated with my teaching degree, then stayed home with the kids until we moved here, so this will be my very first time to teach a class by myself! Woohoo!
Clara will be starting preschool, and is very excited about the "univerm" (uniform) that she gets to wear! She will turn 4 on June 19th. She has requested a chocolate Hello Kitty cake, and we are all looking forward to that!
Lincoln is just enjoying every day! He is learning quite a bit of Cebuano, and he loves to sing, dance, wrestle, read, and play with cars and balls. He is definitely a BOY!
We hope all of you are doing well. Thank you for taking the time to catch up with us! : )
you sound much happier this time, and i'm so glad! :) enjoy your time in manila!
