Next week I will enter into the 5th month of pregnancy. It is hard to believe that it has already been that long. We have our next doctors appointment this Friday in Lima and if all goes well we should be able to find out if we are having a little boy or a little girl. Then the name game can start!
As for our plans in finishing out the year 2007, Paul is continuing to teach business classes at the school, Refuge of Hope, one afternoon during the week, he is also looking at starting a couple small groups that study biblical principles on savings and family finance with local churches in the communities, as well as a couple other small projects in the office. As for me, the school year at Refuge of Hope is coming to a close and I will be finished with classes in December. I continue to make visits to Maricruz (a 13 year old girl in La Perla with Muscular Dystrophy) and Efrain (a 3 year old boy with dystonia in his legs) throughout the week in the afternoons. I have also been doing some translation projects in the office.
We are also looking forward to being able to finish the year with our families as we will be spending Christmas and New Years back in Indiana. We will be headed to the states the 15th of December for a short 3 week visit. At this point I should be almost 7 months along and we will begin making preparations to go to Lima to spend the remaining month to month and a half there as we wait on the little one to make his or her debut at the end of March or first of April.
So there are plenty of things happening here in the southern hemisphere and we love being able to share some of it with all of you at home. Enjoy!
