Ready for a Break

Hi everyone. I will in the next couple of days place a post that will cover the last week & a half of updates & things we are looking forward to in the week to come. As for right now I can say that all four of us are very tired & are looking forward to Mongolian language class finishing next week so that for us summer can start. Things have been very busy here trying to finish things so that we can have a rest. I mentioned in a previous post that Teresa & I have been in Mongolian language studies for 15 months now & I can say that our brains need a rest from class. Many of you who know more than 1 language & have lived in a country where a different language is spoken can understand the need for a rest from formal language learning. We need the relaxed informal language learning that comes with just having the time to talk to normal everyday people on the street or in our case our apartment neighbours that sit on the benches in the front yard of our building.

Please pray for a good sleep tonight. Teresa, Esme & I are just very tired & need a good rest. Kiel has a fever, head ache & his ears are starting to ache. Even though we are tired & a little weak things are going well. This is home & we really, really like living in Mongolia. Thank-you for your prayers.
