Kaleb's first fieldtrip
Yesterday Kaleb and I joined the rest of his classmates and some other parents on a trip to the farm. We saw cows, horses (even a couple of foals less than 10 days old), ducks, and lots of chickens. We saw farm machinery and tools--modern and traditional, different kinds of nests and eggs (ostrich, duck, and chicken), and we cooked kielbasa on a big fire. Oh yeah, we even rode in a horse cart, on a horse itself, and chased chickens around the yard while waiting for lunch. Quite a day for 3 and 4-year old munchkins.

back from Toronto
I"m back. from Toronto, that is. Settling in with the family again after being apart for a week. Got a lot done during my time there. Looking forward to being back there in October/November for our scheduled visit. Of course, next time we'll all travel to Toronto, instead of just me.
So now I am getting back into the swing of things with coordinating worship and arts at ICF for the next few months, developing myself artistically/spiritually/in leadership, building relationships with Christians we could maybe work with in the future, and building relationships with non-believers as we seek to be ministers.
Kaleb is supposed to go on his very first fieldtrip tomorrow with pre-school. We'll see if he goes (and daddy with him) as he was sick during the night last night and for much of today. So we'll see what tonight brings and the morning too.
Maja is a little terror. She moves so fast now, you have to watch her all the time. She actually knows her way around the house now and moves towards destinations rather than just where her curiosity guides her. She actually came and found me in the bedroom this morning. She was so pleased with herself.
Renata's busy as ever as she takes the lions' share of the time with the kids. After a week with both of them by herself, she was pretty tired. But she handled them wonderfully.
I'll leave it at that as I need to get back to cheering Pittsburgh to their imminent defeat of Philadelphia.
