Happy Birthday Jonathan!



Jonathan celebrated his first birthday shortly after we got here.  It was a special time for us to be able to celebrate his first birthday with all of his new "aunts" and "uncles".  He is now walking on his own and getting all around.  He is so active now that he isn't content to sit quietly with me in my class.  So he has begun going to the kids' class with them.  I think it was harder for mom and dad to let him go than it was for Jonathan.  He is doing very well and we are getting more out of our classes.  We praise the Lord for answering our prayers regarding the childcare situation here at the school.  There is a small class for the kids of the students and teachers (about 12 kids in all).   Each day they learn the same topic that we are discussing in our class.  So it is a neat way for all of the family to participate in the learning and growing experience here at the DTS. 

Jonathan is one!

  2. How fun to see Jonathan's birthday pictures. Can't believe he's already one and walking. Seems like just yesterday that youy went to the hospital in the wee hours of the morning to await his birth - not long, I might add. He looks so cute with his curls. The other kids all look like they're settling in to their new ambiente well. We're praying for each one of you. Hope you had a happy Easter. We love and miss you all!! Mom
