We've Arrived!


The Buzbee Compound 

We arrived in Managua at the Buzbee's beautiful compound without a single hitch...although the rains haven't arrived, we are happy to beat them here. There is such celebration when they do come that it will be fun to be here then.

The first night Dan and Michael got on the topic of sailing and boat-building so it's no surprise that Timo and Dan have started to build a small version of what could be...

Rosemary spent two days sitting in on the homeschooling class that Chris Barber has been doing and on the second day took over. Six kids from 13 to 16 is a handful, but she is doing a great job. She says that it is such a great opportunity to be stretched and challenged in a whole host of areas. Each kid has there own strengths and weaknesses and Rosemary is looking forward to being able to encourage them in both areas.

Today Donna went to the preschool/after-school program with Chris Farrington and got to help out with the 4-yr. olds. What precious kids. Here are some pix of the kids she met...

  1. Donna & Dan: I'm so looking forward to keeping up with you. Sorry, Donna I didn't get to talk with you before you left, but we'll catch up later. Tell the Buzbee's I said hi. I'll be praying for your time there. The kids look so precious.
