We are halfway into our month long visit with our kids in Indonesia. This is the country we lived in for 16 years, so we've been having fun brushing off our Indonesian language. Our children grew up in this country, so having our youngest daughter, Jana, and her family living here once again has been fun for all of us in the family. Jana and Kris spent many years in Africa before moving to Indonesia, but have picked up the language here very quickly. The three grandsons are also making progress in Indonesian. They attend an international school while their parents are in language school. We have all traveled back to our home in Central Java and visited with our Indonesian friends there in our village ministry. Renewing those ties was very special to us.
I loooove it! You did great! I'm so glad you have started a blog! This is the new way of staying in touch I guess with what's all going on in our busy lives :).
ReplyDeleteI especially love Mom's and Jana's batik saris in this picture!
And I love the picture of you both drinking coconut, I presume in Pangandaran!
