Wow long time...

Wow has it ever been a long time since Janna or I has written anything on this blogspot. We are happy to say that we now have a way that we are able to access it!! So once again I will try to update it regularly on things that are happening out here. Sorry about the inconvience to everyone.

School is now already 1/4 of the way done for the year and we are continuially amazed at how time is flying by. The school year is going well and the kids are loving school. Jalen is currently in grade 2 and Kaya is in Kindergarten. Kaya absolutely adores her teacher and is learning (at what we think) is an amazing rate. The teacher here has them learn a bible verse for every letter of the alphabet and so the other day Janna and I were quizzing Kaya on her memory verses. Unbelievable, my eyes could not help but water as she wizzed through all the memory verses that she has done from A - J. What a blessing to be able to have this type of education while we are trying to follow God's will in our lives.

This past sunday our pastor spoke on the parable of the talents. What a great reminder to be using what God has given us for him. Last night one of my friends came over and wanted to talk with me. He had a need which he asked me about and then we began talking about what we think our talents are and how we are using them for Him. What an amazing time of sharing and trying to encourage. He is a national guy who will be celebrating his 30 birthday in November. God use us.
