On Friday, September 22nd we began to move into our home that we had been waiting for for almost 2 months. What we thought was a major inconvenience initially became a huge blessing in many ways. God taught us patience and gave us a lesson in Domincan culture, while in the end blessed us with a beautiful new home. It has been a long 2 months in many aspects, with having to live in 2 separate rooms and not have "family time" together except with many other people around in the dining room or to watch a movie huddled on a double bed in one of the rooms. More realistically though, time has flown! We will be in Calgary again before we know it. I am sure the next 10 months, though they seem like a lot will pass just as quickly. There will be difficult times, like Christmas and special days, like our older kids birthdays, but all in all God will be here with us and we will get through. The photo with this post is one of my favorites from last Friday, the rebar was finished about 8 p.m. and as soon as that happened Brent had his flags flying! They symbolize to us the countries that we hold dearest in our hearts and also divide our hearts and lives.
