October has been one incredibly fast month for our family as we continue to figure out what we should all be involved in. Currently we continue to try to reach out to the people who are around us. On saturday morning one of my friends, Roy, phoned and said that he had caught some rats for my snakes. So I said come on over, he and one of his friends came over and we had breakfast together. It is neat to be able to talk about cultures and to see the differences as they tried to eat toast with jam. We talked about what they liked to eat in the morning and how our cultures were so different. Really neat stuff to hang out.
Then last night Kaya invited one of her friends over for supper. Her name is Sarah and she and Kaya have really started playing well together. She is in SD 5 which means grade 4 or 5 at school and she loves coming over to play with our kids. Kaya really wants her to stay for night and so we think this Saturday she will come over for night. So last night around the supper table we spoke Indonesian and tried to teach Kaya and Jalen some more words. Sarah thought it was funny when Jalen told me to sit down and eat. This is something that Janna and I tell Jalen and Kaya all the time, "Makan dan duduk", so Jalen knew what it meant.
We continue to struggle to know what all to get involved in and when to say no so please continue to pray for us. Darren from Papua OUT!
