First of all I just want to say THANK YOU. A huge, resounding THANK YOU to all of you dear friends and family whom have sent us your love, your prayers, your encouragement and your curious questions about school. So whom better to share an update with you, than my lovely little ladies themselves?!

So as you can see and hear for yourselves, school is going well. We have fallen into the habit of school normalcy and while there are still moments of growing pains here and there, Rachael and Abi are doing REALLY well with school and continue to be excited and ready to go. Even if my carefree Abi-girl would rather be catching frogs and lizards, she is a trooper who is growing by leaps and bounds as she settles into the realities that “we can’t play all the time – even if homeschool Math felt more like play”.  😉

I know two girls, though, that have an even greater appreciation for doing language arts in their pajamas on the couch. 😉 We laugh about the irony in cultural differences and hug through the “I can’t wait until next year when we do homeschool again” growing pain moments, but these little ladies are doing incredibly wonderfully and rising to the challenge of school.

Thank you all so, so much for your prayers. And thanks be to God for His continued grace poured out on two little foreigners swimming in the sea of natives.

We are all riding the waves well. =)
