Do you ever have those weird moments when you feel like time is flying bye so fast, but then at the same time it feels like it's been forever? I feel like that right now! It's so weird. It's like I blinked and got here a few days ago, but it's already been 3 weeks since arriving!
A lot has happened... One thing that has been such a blessing is that
we found a place to call HOME!
It has been quite beautiful to see God's hand in this whole process. Since arriving, we have been able to stay with some Thai friends which has been a huge gift and now we rather quickly (considering it's Bangkok) found a place to rent.
This home is ideal especially for our first year! The neighborhood is all Thai, it has a great marketplace, it's a friendly community who is eager to speak Thai with us, and there is a park close by! (Yahh for some trees, right?!!) Another great thing, our next door neighbor is a old Muay Thai fighter. He is about 60 years old and he has a mini gym on his patio! Clearly, Josh was excited about this and quickly made friends!
Our landlords are 'kon jai dee' very kind in Thai! They have even given us a mattress to use so we don't have to buy one! We can officially move in on April 29th! We are so thankful for this timing too because it gives us a little bit of time to settle in before language school starts on May 6th.
Please continue to pray for us and our new home!
Our desire is that this home becomes a place of warm hospitality, renewal for the weary soul, safety for the unsettled and just plain fun for whoever walks in our doors!
