september

tim will fly to tulsa on september 13 and we are counting down the days! we have been so grateful during this time apart for the technology that we have at our disposal - phone, email, skype - that has been wonderful!

and we've both kept busy while we've been apart. hinkson is in full swing, and tim just wrapped up a wonderfully exhausting week there which included the first chapel, a full "leadership day" for students at hinkson, not to mention the planning and meetings and time with students that are a part of the everyday life there. tim is loving it and is feeling joyful as the details of his job are worked out and his ideas and dreams for the position are put into practice! he has gotten to spend some great time with some students in the last few days.
being with the students is a great reminder of why we are there! since all the students have come back to moscow after being away for the summer, tim has been busy!
i am doing great in tulsa and we just have a few more weeks until we meet silas face to face! i am feeling well and i have had a wonderfully rich time being with friends and family - if you are near tulsa and i haven't seen you yet, call me because i would love to see you! i imagine getting together will be easier on this side of silas' arrival than the other.

Ally- I cannot beleive you are in the states, so close, and I can't see you!!!! You look better than you have ever looked in your life... So happy and beautiful! That is what they mean when they talk about "the glow."
I hope you are having a very rich time with your family. I missed you terribly at Carrie's wedding, but the prayer you wrote was perfect. Her brother in-law Matt read it and it was beautiful. I miss you!!! Email me when you have time...
