Long week!

Hey!  What a week!  We had VBS this past week.  Michaela loved it!  This is the first year that she has been old enough to participate.  I helped with the 3-5 yr. olds, and during the times that we had them divided up even further, I was with the 3 yr. olds.  We had ten 3 yr. olds most nights.  I must say that having that many 3 yr. olds together is a challenge.  And then there were the few that were a CHALLENGE!  I'm sure you know the difference.  Anyway, we all survived, even our pastor's wife who was the leader of that age group.  Overall, we did have a good group of kids and good participation from the adults.  It was a fun, if exhausting, week.  Michaela is really starting to pick up Bible stories and concepts.  She is asking some challenging questions at times.  I am glad for it, but not sure if I am ready for it yet. I need a lot of wisdom for her questions!

Other than that, we have just been taking care of the routine "needs to get done" stuff.  We are working on housing for El Paso and trying to make a lot of other decisions about the near future.  It is a bit hard making decisions when there are so many unknowns.  In our small group study on Sunday nights we just started on a book The Cycle of Victorious Living.  The four elements in the cycle are: Commit to the Lord, Trust in the Lord, Delight in the Lord, Rest in the Lord.  I think that now is the perfect time for us to be having this Bible Study.  Enough said!!! =)

Everybody who knows me, knows that I like pictures.  But I have just been to tired to bother downloading.  So I will try to get that done in the next few days and get some new pics of the kids on here.  Have a great week!
