What happened to March…and April too?
April 23, 2009
Okay, so instead of getting better at keeping up with blogging, we are getting worse. For some reason I thought that with moving to the dorm and being required to monitor a mandatory two-hour studyhall each night, I would be able to keep up with our blog, Shuttrfly albums, Facebook and any other internet related hobbies. Yet, the time slips by and I accomplish little more than catching up on emails–that is just reading them. Seriously, without Webmail I would get so much more accomplished in life; Maybe I need to quit reading the message board posts.
Anyway, enough of my excuses. Without a doubt the last six weeks have flown past. Part of that is a result of the weather turning to sunshine and warm breezes, allowing for more time outside. Secondly, Mike and I directed the 2009 Dorm Spiritual Retreat at the end of March. With the amazing help of our fellow dorm staff and God’s presence, we were able to be a part of a delightful God-centered weekend. Another reason is that we have been anxiously waiting to be able to say “hey everybody, we are going to have baby number two next November!” (One more excuse: Once I was into my fifth week of pregnancy my productivity at anything declined immensely, due to sickness and fatigue. Therefore, even more delay with the blog.)
Now it is April and May is peeking out just around the corning. WHAT! Some of the highlights of April were Spring Break–sitting around and doing nothing but playing with Jacob. I attended a weekend conference in Seoul to learn more about how to reach the current teen culture (very insightful). We celebrated Easter with an egg hunt after church and a delicious dinner with friends. Lastly, this weekend many of our dorm students are involved in the Spring Musical, so we will be heading out to see that on Saturday.
It is soooooooooo crazy to believe that summer is coming and that we will be leaving South Korea in a little more than a month! The next few weeks promise to be just as busy, if not more so, than the last few. (I will try to post more regularly until the end of the school year.)
Below are some pics and videos from the last two months. We hope you enjoy them.
