Happy Valentine's Day 2007

Happy Valentine's Day!
This was the view from our dining room window this morning just before sunrise, as we were enjoying coffee and breakfast.

Yesterday our session with our new language helpers went fantastic. Three of my students ( Moxamed, Abdalla, and Abdullahi) and one of Erica's students (Zahra) joined us over coffee to work on our Somali pronunciation. They were patient, focused, and so encouraging. What an answer to prayer! We will continue meeting in Eastleigh together and we are looking forward to having them over to our home soon. Please pray for our "langauge helper team", they are all searching for God's direction. We are so thankful that the Lord has brought us together.

Last night, Tristan and Emma were very busy finishing up their homemade valentine cards for their classmates. Today we picked up bouquets for their teachers and caramels for their class Valentine parties. Tristan wasn't so sure if he wanted to give a valentine to the girls in his class; eventually he did but he dropped the "love" stuff and opted for just signing his name.

We hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Love, Aaron & Erica

Thank you all so much for your Valentine wishes!

Tristan and Emma miss the snow more then Erica and I. This past week end in Rift Valley they made cardboard sleds with the Steeves Children and went "coasting" on their steep back yard -- true Canadians eh!
