another night in the french alps...

today i literally painted all day. it was amazing. the apartment we were working on is finally done!!!

on another note tonight was AWANA's so off we went through the terrible rain and traffic to Grenoble. My kids were crazy tonight as everyone is sick and had tons of verses to recite because they have spent a bunch of time sitting at home due to sick days. Also two of our students are leaving saturday for america. It must be really strange to pick things up and leave with a company like caterpillar. They moved here 4 years ago, have learned french and settled it, and now here they go again back to america to another new town. How hard that must be? I never want to be a miliatry brat or move around for work. I realize with how the world works I could end up doing just that, but I really don't want to. I want to live in a community and town and never move. Or move, but for missions and come back someday. Either way they're leaving got me to thinking hoe short our time here is and how this group of kids are all moving around. This place is one that they all call home for such a short period of time and then they are off again. so hard to accept, but then again thats the life nowadays i suppose. alright we're all sick so bed time for everyone is in effect. night.
