Current Status:
1. Roasting...But thanking God for my fan! If I didn't have my fan, I would have already melted for certain...
2. Enjoying my mosquito net... Current mosquito bite count...maybe one.. mosquito nets really work...go figure.
3. Busy- I only get a few 15 minute breaks a day from 6:30am- 10:30pm, not much time to write, sorry.
4. Speaking Spanish- More or less.. things are going really well in this area. God has blessed me with courage to put myself out there and use the words I have and I am learning new words every day. I haven't made any huge mistakes yet, but the other day, I told the pastor at one of the churches here that I am a nurse, so I enjoying working with monkeys. I meant to say my hands, but the word for monkeys in Spanish (monos) is very close to the word for hands (manos), my bad... we all had a good laugh.
5. Learning- I am learning so much. The class sessions I am attending are intense. I am learning a lot about God and a lot about myself.
6. Hoping- I am hoping to get the chance to actually write a proper blog again in a few days.
7. Blessings- To all of you! Thanks for your prayers and support. I love you all.

Oh you little monkey, you! We always knew you loved working with monkeys. You even have a photo on your blogspot page to prove it! Love hearing from you even if it is forced to be short and sweet. Was great to chat a few moments a few days ago, and this morning Annette asked if you actually get to talk voice to voice with us, she thinks that is so very important, so do we, and we are grateful to God for the privilege!
This is a prefect blog entry. Post more like this. My attention span is too short to read the longer ones. :-)
Love,
Aaron
Hi there...Glad you are making the best of a hot situation. I just knew you liked working with monkeys...I nearly bought you monkey slippers the other day. I will wait til you return and have cold feet again. That brother of yours is a stitch...I am slow with figuring out computer stuff at times...one minute it is there and then gone..oh well...have a great weekend Laura. Hi from Aunt M and oldie aunt Liz.
I second that brotherly comment... this is a great blog! It gets right to the heart of the matter. And hearts are good! Still enjoying the ones you left behind!
Love you...
