Finding Excitement!

For the past two weeks, I have been praying for the excitement of moving to Ecuador to come back for Luke and Jordan. Reality is setting in with all of us - trying to sell our house, raising support, talking to Sunday School classes and community groups, knowing how much we will miss our family, friends, and life here in Tyler... God is so faithful to continue to give us encouragement and confirmation throughout this process. One morning last week before we left for school, I hear Luke yelling, "Mommy - come quick! Look, they are talking about Ecuador." Between episodes of Arthur, the show interviews real kids. This interview was of 2 boys describing their favorite vacation in Ecuador - Quito, Ecuador!!! The boys were so excited and kept saying - that's where we are going to live (with huge smiles on their faces).


Yesterday, Luke was talking about his day at school, and he said that for some reason he kept thinking about Ecuador and is really getting excited about moving. I give all praise to my loving Lord for blessing me with that statement from Luke and for the interview on Arthur.

Luke is having so much fun playing basketball! The school he will be going to next year in Quito has a basketball team where you can start playing in the third grade. He is looking forward to the opportunity to play for the Alliance Spartans!
