Hop on over...

Hop on over to Andrew's blog and check out his new pics! He's in Madurai until next Tuesday when he will fly home and I'll get him next Wednesday. He's staying with his friend, Ram, at his home, and actually has a few days of rest and relaxation--but probably lots of sight-seeing, too! :) Pictures take a long time to load for him, so he's only doing a few at a time, but he said he'll keep trying!

The people he's worked with have been very gracious, and he's been very well taken care of. He got a little cold, but he's feeling better now, and he sounds great when we get to talk on the phone for 10 minutes or so every other day. He said he's been invited back, so who knows? Maybe I'll get to go sometime! ;)

Things are fine here on the home front. The kids miss Andrew, but they're just seeming to take it all in stride... It's been fine since it's been Christmas break for all of us, but things will start getting busier this week. I'm already substitute teaching 3 days this week, and 2 next week, so I'll be taking the kids here, there, and everywhere for a while. I've found that Rowan sleeps very well at home, but not so well anywhere else... Bummer because on the days that I substitute, we usually stay at the farm the night before. Now, I'm torn between not sleeping at night at getting us all up very early before I teach all day... 6 of one, 1/2 dozen of the other, I guess... We'll just have to go back and forth a lot in the next week or so, I think.

Otherwise, I'm trying to get my ducks in a row for next semester's School of the Arts, Kindermusik, and voice lessons. One day at a time! ...

Mike used to have to be away for a week on business once per year (thankfully, he didn't have to go this year). Having one baby and being apart for one week was hard enough - I can only imagine how much you must miss Andrew! Praying for you as you make it through the final week without him...

Also, thanks for letting me know about the Sara Groves CD - I'll have to check it out.

Hugs and kisses to you!!
