LUBBOCK, Texas

Tuesday, August 11, 2009

Monday we drove an hour to Dickens where our friends (from Lubbock days) run Crossview Christian Camp. Ryan and Ginny were excited to be able to spend 4 days….well, they had no idea what they would be doing, but they were excited about it. I had to hold back tears as we said good-bye to them.

We drove on to Lubbock and arrived at the Davidson’s house mid-afternoon. I wish Ginny would have been able to see their 3 girls again; she would have had a lot of fun. Joshua was the same age as their son and they got alone great. After watching a kid’s baseball game, we had dinner and then Jenifer and I slipped off to a movie.

Tuesday Jeff and I met with a church and shared about what God is doing in Paraguay. We came back to the house and swam. Tuesday evening two other of our friends joined us for dinner. The four of us were in a home group together. I was fun to see these beautiful, maturing, and independent children running around. It seems like just yesterday we were nursing and changing diapers, and trying to figure out childcare for during our studies. We shared about Paraguay. The kids were great listeners as I showed the flag and some money. I taught them a few phrases in Guarani and we practiced greetings (a kiss on each cheek). Then we introduced terere.
