Language Learning is Completed
Well, not exactly, but we have learned a lot this year. Please don’t be surprised that we aren’t fluent, it really does take a few years to really understand and use all the ends and outs of another language. Personally, this has been a very stretching year. It was more difficult than I expected to [...]
Dunlevy House
Hey everyone, here’s a quick look at our new place! Please keep praying we can find housing for the rest of the team!
Anxiousness (Part 2)
I can relate to the many unknowns and imminent questions from Tara’s post as well. But, my thoughts and questions are of a slightly different sort…will the economy in the US crash, or at least will it it affect our financial supporters to the extent where giving drops off substantially? Will we then have to [...]
Anxiousness
It has begun…….I don’t like it, but it happens when you move from one country to another. The anxiousness of the unknown is almost unbearable at times…….these are only a few of the questions that run through my head……will all our stuff fit in our boxes for the flight back to the states, will we [...]
Photos of the New Place
We actually went and saw the house again two days ago, and I’m just now posting pictures. Blame it on morning sickness. The good news is that we still really like the house. It’s just as big as we remembered it being, which is to say, not huge but very good. We still feel great [...]
A Place to Stay
We’ve been wondering for awhile now where we were going to live when we went back to the Sates for 2 months before Argentina. A couple in our church is selling a house of theirs and have offered to hold off on selling it and allow us to stay there. It will be partially furnished [...]
I don’t know if I believe it
We put a deposit on a place to live today. Nate has been working on all the paperwork this afternoon, and it will be a day or two maybe before we know for sure that everything is going to work out. But still, it seems like we found a place! It’s not at all what [...]
I’m Not Just Here to Learn Another Language
Since becoming a parent, I have learned how impatient I am and with that impatience comes a lack of self-control. God has been teaching me extra doses of His Grace in these two areas. They go hand in hand with parenting and also language learning. These two things take up all of my day, so [...]
our week
This week was a bit of a hard one for the Elledge family – emotionally, physically, and spanish-ly. All of it directly related to this … On Tuesday morning, as we were getting ready to head out for school, Emerson fell in our driveway and fractured her tibia. She has to wear this cast for [...]
Getting back up to speed: An Update
I’ve been AWOL on the blog for awhile now, for no other reason than just forgetting or not mustering up enough energy when I would remember. So, an update: The 3rd trimester of language school began at the beginning of September, and it began on a rough note for me. Basically, I’ve had a rough [...]
