First of all, I should say that we got our internet hooked up at home today!! Now we'll be more connected and hopefully make more regular posts.
I (Angela) was thinking the other day of all the things I miss about home, about Charlottesville, and about life in general in the United States. Suffice it to say, if I made a list of all I miss or all that is hard, it would be a long list. So....I decided to make a list of the things I love here in Costa Rica.
*wearing tank tops and flip flops in January
*walking to and from school everyday with my family
*holding hands with my children as we walk (everywhere, everyday!!!)
*crema dulce in my coffee (there is no half and half here - crema dulce is whipping cream!)
*the satisfaction that comes from understanding and communicating with a native speaker, mas despacio por favor
*the crisp blue sky in the mornings

Yay for Costa Rica! I´m excited that you guys are "here." We are praying for your language learning and cultural adjustment. Keep your hearts full of gratitude and humor! Love you- Hannah
oh sweet friends. It is a delight to know you are exactly where God wants you to be & you are content with that! It warms my heart. I can see you drinking your coffee & smiling with your kiddos! Enjoy every second! You will be prayed for & as Bren learns Spanish at school I will have her call you for help! Hugs from KY, Mer & fam
