Words from the "wise"

Alan returns from Get-out with Uncle Ben (Shane's brother and a fitness buff) and says " Mum, did you know that pain is your friend?" We know exactly where that came from...ha, ha

He is getting quite fit though and seems to take a shine to running and sports in general. He can out jumping-jack any kid in this home(!) and runs pretty fast too. Must change his PE clothes to long pants though. He's getting too banged up.
All the kids in the home are joining a kids sports club next year. We're moving but I'd still like to look into it wherever we end up.

Ah yes, I guess it's pretty official that we'll be moving on in January. Our missionary visa's are expired and it'll be $1000 bucks a passport to renew for a year(!) but besides that we already felt like our time here was over. We're not yet sure where we'll end up but we're waiting to hear back from a few places. You will know when we know.
Pray for us. Change is never easy but always challenging and exciting!
"Changes are your friend!"

  2. Nah, it's good for them. I dare say we've got the fittest Family kids. I've seen drastic changes in Alan's health and happiness because of it.

  3. I second that question from Nikki....

    But besides that, it's interesting hearing about what you're up to & future changes & all....

    So if &/or when I do end up back in UG, I guess you guys won't be around...

    Hey, next time you're in Aussie give me a holler....it'll give me an excuse to visit...it's the only continent I haven't been to (besides Antartica)...
