Thank-you & we're home.

We really felt that we needed to go back to Mexico this summer. It all started 2 years ago when our old Spanish teacher from Mexico came to visit and commented that she was surprised that we hadn't lost much of our Spanish. We decided that we needed to start saving to finally go back, with Zara finishing Primary 1, and Tabitha getting ready to start High School.

Now we are flying back, and it is hard to believe that years of saving and planning are over and we returning to our home. Of course we come back just that little bit changed, but we are so grateful for so many who not only followed and read what we got up to, but got in contact from time to time, and especially who prayed for us. A special mention needs to go to the Wallyford Livingroom Church leadership and members who worked to fill the spaces left by Carol and I for 6 weeks.

We felt safe. We felt useful. We were healthy for the most part (and we don't take that for granted) and we had so much opportunity to share Jesus as well as to deepen friendships there. Our Spanish held up, and the kids learned so much Spanish too. As I write, we are 50 mins from Edinburgh, and Zara is 'out for the count' and I have half feelings of guilt for dragging her half way round the world, and yet hoping that she will have many amazing memories.

So, hoping that I didn't write too much, and state the obvious too often, thank-you again and again and again for reading this blog this summer. Our 6 weeks in Mexico was never to be a holiday, it was to work, and as we come back it isn't just to get back into the routine of family life again, it is to get back to work in Wallyford, being a blessing there, helping those who need, sharing Jesus and praying for our home village.

God bless you,
