Something new

As this new adventure starts, I thought I would try to keep up better with everyone by starting a blog. I'm not sure how this will work and how often I will be able to to update, but I figure it is worth a short. Everyone else seems to be doing it, so perhaps it is time I got on the bandwagon!

I'm currently in NY for PFO (pre-field orientation). It has been a great week getting to know so many wonderful people that will be all over the world. I have especially enjoyed getting to know the team going to Vienna Christian School. Our days have been pretty packed with sessions and many times I feel my brain going into overload...but I have still really, really enjoyed it!

More later!

But what could I do? I had a three year old and one year old at home.  ... I could teach some German. But when?   ... I could donate clothes and other items that were needed.

6. chair
