Language Tests and Bible Teaching
I (Amy) woke up that morning excited and a little nervous. The day of my Spanish evaluation had finally arrived. Was I sufficiently prepared? Would I test out?
Finally Back to Normal
I (Amy) forgot what it was like to feel normal. After the birth of Lily, our fourth precious child, I began a time of postpartum depression that lasted for about five months. This came on the heels of my third trimester of pregnancy, already much harder than with our previous children. Looking back, it’s as […]

Discouraged, I took my keys back from the salesman and walked outside. I had come to this Chevy dealership with one purpose: selling our struggling Uplander minivan during my weekend in El Paso, so I would not return to Mexico with a defunct vehicle registered to my Mexican resident’s visa.

Carrying a Full Load
AMY: Sitting in our first Spanish language classes almost two years ago, I was very pregnant with Joel. It was so exciting to be in Mexico, beginning to catch bits of the language and expecting our third child! Little did I know that less than eighteen months later I would be pregnant once more and […]
