Wednesday night we had a West African night with good company and good food... We met a couple guys from Nigeria at a basketball game at a local college, and they were quite interested in our family. We decided to invite them over for dinner of groundnut stew. The couple with the baby are also from Nigeria, they are here going to Bible school. Jenn knew of them through the clinic where they had come when they were going to have their baby. It was a fun night of chatting with West Africans...makes us feel right at home like we were back in Sierra Leone!
We are an international family of eight! God has most certainly brought our family together. We are a homeschool family and love the challenges and adventures each day brings. We have been working in landscaping/agriculture for the past 20 years in Homer, Alaska. The Lord is directing us to take our work to the Philippines! We are so excited about the direction He is taking us!
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence; Two roads diverged in a wood, and I~ I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.
