As we continue to prepare for Bolivia...

                     I have survived the second day of school. We will continue to homeschool until we go to Bolivia, then when we arrive there the four oldest children will go to an International school (depending on when we get down there). The last three years Shay has done the ABEKA DVDs, so I am schooling all six (Uriah works on his cubbie verses). She is pretty much doing the same things she has already done. For those of you that don't know, Shay was suppose to graduate this last year. We were not sure what to do because we did not want to leave her in the States and us go on the mission field. So, as we were praying about what to do, Shay came to me (Frances) one day & asked if she would be able to go to school with the other kids. So I asked our team leader and he said that would be a great idea. So as long as we are down there before March, Shay will go to school down there & graduate there. She is also looking for a job so if anyone knows of something, please let her know.
                      School is going good, it gets a little hard when they all need my help at once. It is fun to go through cubbie verses with Uriah & he is asking some really good questions about Jesus. It has always amazed us how smart he is & how quick he picks things up. They are all doing really good. God sure has blessed us with some great kids. It never ceases to amaze me how He continues to bless us even though we do not deserve any of His blessings!!!
                      Ok, the thought of selling salsa has left. I had my time of thinking there was something we had to do to get to Bolivia. The last few days in my quiet time my Lord has shown me the only thing He wants me to do is to trust Him!!! So, I will not be driving myself crazy trying to make a bunch of salsa to sell. But, I will make it for gifts for Christmas, if we are here, if not I will give you my recipe! Maybe I will post it on our blog.
