It has been almost exactly two months since I wrote my last post. My last post starts out by saying "nine days left until Spain". That time has come and gone. We were in Spain for three weeks and it was a very enjoyable time and I wish we could have stayed longer. At the beginning of the trip, three weeks seemed like a long time, but they went by so fast and there were things that we didn't get to do.
While we were there, I had hoped to go see my friends in Cartagena, the city south of Valencia that we lived in for three years. All four girls were actually there but sadly I wasn't able to go see them. There were also some friends houses in Valencia that we never had the chance to go to.
While it seemed like there were a lot of things we didn't get to do, I left Spain feeling much more connected than I had in years. That was a nice feeling. It has also made me so much more impatient. We will probably visit again in a year and a half, but I wish we could do more than just visit. All in God's timing....
This summer my whole family is going to be in Spain, except for me and my hubby. Someone told me the other day that it's all part of being an adult. And I understand that but knowing that doesn't make me miss my family or Spain any less.
Last week, I was able to more of something I really enjoy. I have had the opportunity to sub at an ESL school...so I go and teach English to immigrant adults a couple times a month. It has been a lot of fun to be able to do that and I feel like I learn something about myself every time I teach. It is exciting to see students respond and to be able to work out everything as I teach.
I also have been helping some with my parents church website (check it out: http://www.vidaabundantevalencia.com/) and that has been fun too because I get to practice my Spanish and also help my husband with his.
I have been working on reading the book of Ezekiel. It has taken me longer than I expected...it's kind of a hard book to read, but I am getting through it. Next book I read will be a New Testament book. I haven't decided which one yet. Any suggestions?
I guess I will close here. Just an update on my life. More later.
