School Days

School's starting to get busy here. There are articles to read, lesson plans to write (for our Kirundi language acquisition lab), sounds to learn how to pronounce, and sentences with verbs, noun phrases, and direct objects to analyze. It's a little overwhelming and I'm still learning what works best for managing and organizing my time and workload. I've been able to have some afternoon & evening time at home with Jodie & the kids, and have been back here at school working later in the evening.

I've enjoyed meeting many of the other students and teachers here at SIL-UND. There are people here from across the country (Florida to Oregon, Massachusetts to Arizona) and around the world (China, Brazil, England, and many other countries). It's been fun to hear their stories and learn about where they've been and where they're planning on going after this summer. Jodie and I hope to talk and learn more from others this summer as we discern what direction God may be leading our family in the months and years to come.
