And this is the first school year ever (in the history of our family) that all of my children will be in school. While Elijah is at his preschool class, I will have two entirely kid-free mornings a week! Whatever will I do with myself? All ready for the 1st day of school! A partial view of the Secondary Campus.

PNG is 39 years old today and it was celebrated here in Wewak with speeches, a parade, gun salute, and lots of red, black and yellow. What was it like? Take a tour with the pictures below. A special sign was constructed for the event. There were even some faces painted, like this young girl sporting the 39 on her face. The large PNG flag is slowly ...

This is my Life. Or: Snapshots of my life as mom, wife and missionary. Thursday, November 28, 2013. Be Joyful Always. Give Thanks in All Circumstances.". This verse in 1 Thessalonians is my mantra for today. I think I've already repeated it to myself a dozen times this morning so far, and I've barely got the kids out the door for school today. But honestly, I'm having to repeat it over and over to myself because I'm having a really hard time following it today. But this year, after hosting Thanksgiving g...

This is my Life. Or: Snapshots of my life as mom, wife and missionary. Thursday, October 24, 2013. Two years ago, (after the most painful labor I’ve experienced out of all my childbirth experiences) I got to hold this tiny, perfect new little boy. I kid you not… some of the first words out of my mouth were, “I’ve seen this baby before! 8221; It’s true! Elijah definitely is a Taylor, and looks just like his older brothers (especially Nathan). Birthday, when we are in America (last October we were in the v...

This is my Life. Or: Snapshots of my life as mom, wife and missionary. Sunday, August 17, 2014. Our Trip Part 2: Sydney. My sleeping buddies for the night. notice how much space E left me! We took the train from near our hotel into downtown and walked around a bit. We walked through the huge cathedral and (very quickly, as we were going at the pace of the kids' interest level) gazed at its beauty. A neat drinking fountain. Nathan and his trusty lion with the vanquished Justin. On the Opera House steps.

Life is a journey and takes unexpected turns. Archive for the category “Story”. Poor Frank – House Burglary. When we returned from our three week trip to Yabru, we returned to a messy house. Frank (not his real name) had broken into our house. While we don’t know for sure what happened, the clues point to the following probable story. Trying the door, he found that the handle would not turn so he started trying keys that he found laying around. Unfortunately, none of them worked! To Give or Not to Give.
