While Matt is in school...

The girls and I get to hang out and play :) We are staying at my uncle's house right now and it has been nice being here. They have maids that clean and cook so I don't have to worry about any of that. I take care of my girls and that's pretty much what I do.

It's nice being able to just focus on my girls and not having other responsibilities. I also get to talk to the maids and spend time with them. They are so sweet and so helpful...truly have such servant hearts.

What Matty gets home from school, we have a yummy lunch made by Guadalupe. She also makes fresh fruit juices every day...some days it's pineapple, other days watermelon juice, or papaya...it changes every day. It is nice! After lunch we usually take our siesta as a family, napping for an hour or so.

The Lord is teaching us so much just by living here and being in such different culture. Life here is so simple and laid back. It truly makes us appreciate more what we have and the opportunities that we have. We in the States have way too much...we are truly blessed and should consider how to simplify our lives and use our excess to help others instead of wasting it on our luxuries.
