This morning, after I woke up, we had Fante class. I held our teachers baby for quite a while to try to get him to stop crying. After a while, she fed him, and he went right to sleep. This was my last Fante class and the Ruckmans last, until their next term.
After Fante, I went to the church and got the weedeating done around the property. Once I finished there, I headed back to the house to try to repair the tarp that is over the dog pen. I worked on it for two and a half hours or so, but I don’t think it is much better than it was when I started. 🤣🤣
Missionary on Fire Podcast
Preserving the Legacy of Faithful Missionaries
The Missionary on Fire podcast features interviews with veteran missionaries, classic sermons from the field, and stories of God’s faithfulness across generations. If you love the heart behind these stories, you will love the podcast. New episodes regularly.
After working on that, I waited for the Ruckmans to get back after they had gone out to do some things. Once they got back to the house, the Ruckmans talked with a couple separately. I tried to keep their kids from distracting the very serious conversations, but it was a lot of work. 😂
After the counseling finished at 8:30 P.M, we had supper; then, I went up to my room. Once I got in my room, I called Mom and Dad for a while because they were on their way to Dallas. Dad has to be at the airport at 4:00 A.M. and his first flight leaves at 7:40 A.M. He then has a four-hour layover in New York before flying to Accra. He arrives in Accra at 7:00 A.M. tomorrow, and then will have a few hour layover before getting on the last thirty minute flight to Takoradi. I will hopefully be able to see him by 1:00 P.M. tomorrow. 😁😁😁
Thirteen Days until I am back in Texas and 14 until I am home again.

Prayers for safe trip all around.
Again, you’ve had quite a time, now wrangling kids and the tarp. At least it wasn’t at the same time.
Praying for your Dad on that long trip! Your count-down is going so fast! Lots of love!
