Krista- What a great list! I have to echo so much of it- especially the coming home to church. There are so many times when we've complained about our home church while in the STates, but when we're back, it does seem kind of heaven-like! And, it's good to remember the things that you didn't realize you'd miss. Who would've known that brushing teeth as we do in America is a treat unknown to many around the world!
ReplyDeleteIf you guys are in Germany, let me know. We're about 22 minutes by train from the Frankfurt Airport. We have a place to stay if you need it or if you just want a meal together or a tour of a small German city, I'm around. I recently had a baby and she has a serious heart defect, so for the next several weeks, I can't go do the things we normally would in germ-y crowds. But, I can enjoy visitors!
So cool that you guys are having these experiences! -Cass
