A week off can be a good thing. We have had a great week of getting our to do list completed which is a load off my shoulders. I have realized this week the importance of rest and how often we go, go, go and ignore what our bodies are telling us. WE think we are invisible and can go ninety to nothing and not have consequences to our physical, mental and spiritual well being. Each morning I have had the privilege of sending a devotional to friends back home and this had provided me such an opportunity! Not only to strengthen my relationship with Christ but to encourage others as well. If we are willing to be servants for Christ, you never know what doors he will open for you.
A week off can be bad thing. I have gotten out of the "normal" routine of going to language school each day and practicing my Spanish. I guess looking at having a week off, this might have been the only bad thing which I guess is okay.
Last night we found out that the schools will be closed again this coming week! They have been closed for the last three weeks. The first week was because of Samana Santa (Holy Week) and the following two weeks was a safety precaution as far as all the earthquakes we have been having. The weird thing is we have only had two small, and I mean small, earthquakes this past week. So to close school for another week is not logical to me but I am not in charge. This really messes up schedules for everyone when the kids are not in school. Can you imagine the chaos this would cause in the US if they closed schools for 4 weeks? BOY! We will looked to neighbors to help watch Sydney and Noah while we go to school each day from 9:00-11:30. Well, the one thing we have learned here is you go with what you are given. Make the best of every situation.
