Revamped

I want to start off by saying thank you again for caring about this little Addington family. As I said in my last post I was encouraged to know that you're reading what I share here. Thank you, very sincerely, thank you for checking in.

Life has been revamped. We finished our 2+years with our former sending organization and are now sans organization -- but not without fellowship, support and accountability. We concluded our time as English teachers. We moved to a new apartment, new university, and Drew is now a student in the MBA program. We'll call it home for at least the next three years.

My parents helped us move the day before their departure. Mom and I packed up everything in one morning. Drew hired a truck, and Dad & Drew bore everything on their backs -- down from the 4th floor, then up to the 6th floor at our new place. It was an amazing show of masculinity.

Since then we've been working hard to transform a musty old flat into an effervescent and hospitable home. I'll show you pictures sometime in August when the last touches are in place.

This summer I am ever-thankful, perpetually feeling like I need to put my face on the ground in gratitude. We were concerned about lots of things, but everything worked out beautifully. How is it possible that God loves us so much and cares about the peewee details of our lives?

Face on the floorboards.

Thank You.
