Fourth Quarter

It is amazing to the think that the fourth quarter of school starts tomorrow. That means that in just 9 weeks the 2008-2009 school year will be over. This year has definitely gone by fast. Just when we will be comfortable in our dorm duties the school year will end.

The boys return back to the dorm today from one week off of school. Then tomorrow classes resume. Our family had a great vacation and rest time. We are having a great time with my mom who has been visiting us since March 3. We had a great time at the beach and then visited Kim's parents up in the mountains. We have been definitely been keeping my mom busy.

We continue to to be busy. In the beginning of March three of our guys were inducted to the National Honors Society. Later that week four of our guys earned awards at the sports awards banquet. We are proud dorm parents =). Then all five dorms had a fellowship night that included worship, scripture readings, devotions, communion, foot washing and of course food.

-Please pray for our 3 seniors Peter, Keio, and Chris as they are finalizing their college plans and say good bye to all their friends at Fatih Academy.

-Tyler continues with speech therapy. Please pray for his cooperation and that he will feel comfortable at therapy.

-It seems that the Lord has been leading us to stay in the Philippines for the summer. As much as we would love to go home to visit family and friends it seems to be the best for us to stay here. Tyler's doctors agree that more change would be very difficult for Tyler and he might regress. We have lots have plans for remodeling the dorm house. We also hope to take some language classes as well.

We continue to thank you all for all of your thoughts and prayers. We definitely couldn't do this without you.

We love you all!
