Way too long!

Wow! I feel I must apologize for amount of time that has passes since the last update. I must admit that I am a little bit embarrassed to see that almost an entire year has passed. All I can say is that I can try to do better.

We have been fairly busy this last year. I will try to summarize our last year in as few words as possible just to bring everyone up to speed:
  • August 2010 - arrive back in Indonesia after a 3 month mid-term break
  • August 2010 - School starts and Paul is busy coaching volleyball
  • November 2010 - Teacher conference in Korea. Paul got to attend for 1 week
  • December 2010 - Christmas! Major rainstorm on Christmas Eve. That is something that I have never experienced before.
  • January & February - Birthday season! Stephan (7), Grayson (3), Karen (still 29), Darryl (9), and Elleah (5)
  • March 2011 - Outdoor Education. Paul helped with 2 week high school field trip. That is a long time to be away from home!
  • May 2011 - School is out!

This year has been a year of learning. I, Paul, am learning how to lead spiritually in the home. I am learning how to pray. I am learning how to be a godly husband. As soon as I write this, Romans 3 pops into my mind, "... there is no one righteous, not even one!" Regardless of how good someone looks or how many good deeds they accomplish or how many years they serve God as a missionary overseas they are still as sinful as someone who has never heard of Christ. Never forget that we are all in need of a Savior. May that savior be Jesus Christ!

Happy Easter from our home to yours!

Paul
