Snyders in Mada: September 2014
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 3, 2014. This Is How We Do: The First Day of School. 1 September 2014 will go down in the history books as the first day my schooler spoke her first French words. She couldn't remember them by the time we got home and tried to pass off a movie quote with a French accent as French words, BUT I was witness to her legitimate French utterances when I picked her up from school. Except there wasn't time to talk to her teacher. Because the car wouldn't start. And we had to walk....As we wal...

Snyders in Mada: September 2013

Tuesday, September 17, 2013. Iza ny anaranao chips? In official Malagasy is, loosely,"What is your name? Literally, it is "Who the your name? But that's neither here or there. What's funny about this particular phrase is how Waverly chooses to use it. She doesn't know much Malagasy except some basics that Chandler and I have taught her: greetings, please (and thank you and excuse me - all one word in official), and how to ask for someone's name. Oh, and "Avia! So, as a last "hurrah" as the Snyder family ...

Snyders in Mada: This Is How We Do: Haircuts
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2014/12/this-is-how-we-do-haircuts.html
Thursday, December 18, 2014. This Is How We Do: Haircuts. Before we moved to Africa, I had two concerns: haircuts and birthdays. I mean, those weren't my only. Two concerns, but they were the two concerns I never inquired about because they seemed quite petty against all of the other major life adjustments we would be making. There were questions I had. To get answered, like:. Q: What do I do if we don't have a doctor near us? Fortunately, we have an amazing. Understandable because he has great hair.

Snyders in Mada: August 2013
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 16, 2013. In almost 27 years of life (27 in November. At what point is it "all down hill from there"? That's what it feels like, anyway), I've never physically experienced growing pains. Hard to believe, right? Topped out at 5 feet on a good day. My joints never hurt as my limbs elongated because, quite obviously, they've never really elongated. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Snyders in Mada: January 2014
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 30, 2014. So Many. Things. 1 I combined our two blogs into one. Two reasons: a. It's no longer Waverly's world with two babies, so the title, In a Waverly World. No longer works and my mind is too lazy to think of a new one, and b. I can barely keep up with one blog these days, much less two. 2 In 5 days we will celebrate 3 months of Elodie's precious life! You know that saying, "If we'd had the second one first, we wouldn't have had anymore"? Mommy, I can get out of the window.". Despi...

Snyders in Mada: May 2015
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Shout Out to Moms. I am fully aware that I am a mother of two, soon to be three, but I am constantly asking myself, "Moms, how do you do it? Totally rhetorical, of course, because I'm not a mom who enjoys reading "How To Mom" books or blog posts. But there are some days, usually the days when I've "had it up to here" with my 5-year-old and my 1-year-old is a clinging vine, that I genuinely wonder, "Moms, how do you do it.". My second has words like "candy" and "chips" in her vocabul...

Snyders in Mada: Bekily
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2014/11/bekily.html
Monday, November 24, 2014. We set out on a Thursday night to go to a town called Bekily (Beh- kee. Nah), a village we had passed by our last trip through the area. Normally, this is an incredibly slow process. Rarely do I expect to accomplish all the tasks I set before a trip, but as I said, sometimes God makes it clear his mission is paramount and moves obstacles out of the way.

Snyders in Mada: October 2013
http://snydersinmada.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 25, 2013. I've drafted multiple posts reflecting on this past year and now, here we are, the end of October and I've got nothin'. Our one year anniversary of landing on the island was September 29 and, as we all know, so many things happen in a year, so many things change, and you close out the year realizing you've grown more than you ever thought possible, which has definitely been my personal experience. And I plainly answered him, Why not? No one, not one person, not one missionary, e...
