For The Joy of All Nations
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2014/06/its-june-10th.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Tuesday, June 10, 2014. It's June 10th. When I glanced at my phone this morning and saw June 10, it hit me how crazy it is that we are sitting in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, today. On June 10th of last year Patrick and Samuel and I were on a plane headed to Bratislava, Slovakia. We were calling our move "long-term." We wanted to raise our family there. But we never expected to be here in America today. In fact, by December we were back on a plane to America. My parents came to visit.

For The Joy of All Nations: July 2013
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Sunday, July 14, 2013. Samuel visited his first European castle yesterday. And I’m just beginning to feel the weight of the decision we’ve made to live here. It really affects his life too. In some ways, I feel like we’ve taken away some significant things. Number one on that list would be living near his grandparents. Tuesday, July 2, 2013. Last meal in America at the Dwarf House. No air conditioning, so we bought a pool! Samko is helping put some furniture together. He has a...

For The Joy of All Nations: He's not talking yet
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2012/12/hes-not-talking-yet.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Monday, December 3, 2012. He's not talking yet. I didn't think much of it at the time, but earlier this afternoon Samuel really surprised me. I've been enjoying watching him interact more with people and toys and the world around him. Sidenote: today at the grocery store, Samuel said "hi" to a woman walking by. She was so amazed and said, "Wow, he's talking at such a young age! What else can he say? Umm nothing. Sorry to disappoint you, but he's just making noise.). Next sprin...

For The Joy of All Nations: It is the night of our Dear Savior's birth (well, it was)
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-annual-first-night-of-encounter.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Friday, December 28, 2012. It is the night of our Dear Savior's birth (well, it was). The annual first-night-of-Encounter chicken fingers. Someone got their little mouth on this before I took it away. And she gave me some great ideas/resources. Interview with Phil Vischer, the creator of Veggie Tales. He recently made a movie called “Buck Denver Asks, ‘Why Do We Call It Christmas? Definitely worth listening to. So here are Samuel’s 3 Christmas gifts. We are on staff with Cru, ...

For The Joy of All Nations: September 2012
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Thursday, September 13, 2012. It's amazing all the "firsts" you experience when you're brand new to the world! We drove the 6 hours to Alabama for a little family reunion time,. And Samuel was amazing! I think not quite 2 weeks old. Is the best time to travel with kids. Samuel is a sleeping champ. Because Clemson and Mizzou were playing at the same time,. The plan was to change clothes at halftime. But the Clemson stuff only lasted a few minutes. First trip to Dollywood. Weeks...
