It is nearly impossible to believe that I haven't blogged since January, here it being the sunset of April but, alas, it is true. It is not possible to bring you up to date on all of the events that have happened. Suffice it to say that the Spring semester is nearly over here and, like my fellow students, I am very glad that this is the case! My relief will be short lived, however, as I have to take two chemistry classes during the summer. It's ok, really. I love me some chemistry!
The family and I had quite a scare here this past Friday as a tornado touched down about half a mile from our little home. Seven people and a very large dog were huddled in a very small closet for about 30 minutes while we heard the sirens going off outside. It was with incredible earnestness that we prayed for God's protection for us and the rest of the people in our town. Thankfully, no one died here, a true answer to our prayers, though as a community we did sustain some significant damage. We all have a greater appreciation for God and the incredible grace with which He grants us life every day.
Benjamin, our ten year old, now wants to become a meteorologist!
School finals are in three weeks. I appreciate prayers for the success of all of us students as we struggle with tests and deadlines!
I'll (do better to) keep you posted...
