In 2006, we spent 6 months in Moshi, Tanzania. While we are back in the States now, our hearts were forever changed. As we are in the ongoing process of learning what it means to live by faith, we strive to reflect God's love, sacrifice, generosity and forgiveness to a broken world.

1st Day of School

1st day of school..already...where has the time gone?!! Look at our little princess off to school for the 1st of many trips...Daddy & Mommy definitely had the, 'Our little girl's growing up' experience as we dropped her off for the 1st day. Well, there's a preschool nearby for 3-6 year olds that's run by an organization called YWAM (Youth with a Mission)...a worldwide organziation focused on sharing Christ around the globe..consequently also the same organization through which my bro (Matt) got himself hitched! (Hey, maybe God's got something in the works for Shay too...I've heard the dowry for beautiful blonde curly haired princess' is quite high here...maybe 30 cattle, 20 goats and if we play our cards right, one or two elephants!) Soooo, as you can see, it didn't take long for Shay to settle in...our little social butterfly...wonder where she gets it from?!! She loves all her new friends...and I think they like her too...what do you think?! Pretty soon now we're fully expecting Shay to start answering us in Swahili & us to once again have no idea what she's saying!!! Ah, the good 'ol days! The school's only a couple years old, but already one of the best in the area...and now that they have Boma's only mtoto wa kizungu (white kid)...well, there goes the neighborhood! Anway, Shay's classroom is quite nice...very clean. We drop her off at 8:30 and pick her up at 12:30...during which time Mommy takes Jadyn and either goes to Mailisita to help with the Nursery at Light in Africa or to the market to pick up our fruits and vegetables.
