Some more pictures....

Here are some more pictures from the wedding and just hanging out at Baan Nam Jai. The kids enjoy posing for me. Well, not really so it's up to me to get some good candid shots of them. Sometimes they will give me a good smile but I think they are sick of people trying to take pictures of them. I guess I would to. So you all could be praying for me. I was asked to think about doing some one-on-one therapy type teaching with a couple of the kids. If you go to the website: baannamjai.org , you can read the stories of the kids and realize that with a couple of these guys they had a rough go at the beginning and now their bodies are trying to catch up. So, please be praying as I step down from doing the full-time nanny position to doing this along with some office administration stuff. Baan Nam Jai is going through a lot of changes. We are trying to hire two new thai nannies, both of our kindy teachers are finishing up. Betty (who is one of our teachers) and Tlana are moving to India where Tlana is from to work with the new YWAM base there. Pui just got married and will be doing some teaching but we are praying about our kids to go to a thai school in the fall. Also Onn (one of the nannies I work with) finishes up her internship in April and we have two thai nannies who will be leaving when they have their babies. Casey (the guy who does alot as far as administration and heads up teams that come and so much community stuff along with fund raising etc.) is moving with his wife to the eastern part of Thailand where his wife's family lives. So we will be loosing him as well. Penny and Paul's son and his wife who have been helping out a lot in every area will be finishing up there time here shortly too. So be praying. It's not going to be a fun transition for me as so much is changing and a lot of people whom I just met but have become close to will be leaving me. And new people coming. It's a good season but also hard. Change is hard and now I know why these children at Baan Nam Jai don't even blink when someone else leaves. They are so used to it and that......well it breaks my heart and really makes me want to stay longer than anticipated. But that is all up to the Lord. I am not going to say I will leave or stay until I know that that is what the Lord has for me. I am just going to stay put until He says to move......I hope this finds you all well and hope to hear from you soon....
love you....
