Friends. I am sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Being that we now have to souls abroad, I would love if we could use this more often. I thought James had a good idea with treating it like the new Community Locker Journal.
Life for the Ochoa's has been smoothing out. We are in Texas and living off of support which is encouraging to see God's provisions everyday. It also allows us to focus on School and communication with our team and coaches. We are currently enrolled into Intro to Linguistics courses which is kicking our tail. Also, I am learning that to an Linguistic there is no wrong or right just words. So....yeah.
But for real, it is really interesting to be approaching language in such a way. It focuses on observing, rather than critiquing. I think Ben and James would find it interesting since they will be less 1st language speakers around them. James, I assume you might also be going to a remote village that may have a distinct dialect or language than Mexican Spanish?
Anyway, Maria is getting so big. I wish you guys could all come and take time holding her. Seriously, that would help us out greatly. Like, take her off her hands and stuff. Just kidding. We love her and such. But seriously, we miss you all. So having the opportunity for you guys to hold her just implies that you would be close enough for us to share a cup of coffee with. And that sounds good to me.
Cheers
- Tony
