Our mail system here is not the most reliable. We never know when (or if) we will get something; if they will deliver it; if we will have to pay a fine, etc. etc. However, God always knows what we need and when we need it. We received a Christmas package from our dear friends the Toons. It was a true blessing. Handwritten notes are always a treat and encouragement. The kids also loved getting last year's homeschool annual. It lifted our spirits to recall the memories and see special friends. Books, vitamins, treats...the list goes on and on....Thank you, Thank you Toon Family! You know us so well. We realize that it is 
a great expense to mail things to us. I will confess that at some point in the unwrapping process each one of us shed a tear of gratitude, joy, remembrance, feelings of being loved, etc. etc. We miss you all deeply. Thank you for allowing the Father to use you to minister to us. We were told that the 6-9 month mark is a hard one in adjusting to living overseas. I confess that we are having many moments of heartache and reality checks. It is amazing in those moments how the Father sends an email, a facebook note, a local friend, or messages from His Word to encourage us. Thank you to everyone for your prayers and your willingness to "love on us" from across the water. Our 
God is so good, and He does indeed 
care about every part of our lives. Today, our prayer for our home support teams is that God touches you all in a mighty way; that you feel His presence and are encouraged by His amazing love. We are blessed! AT
