Today was our first day with Nona Ana. She did really well and seems to be a diligent worker. She is very friendly and a good talker. This will be so helpful as I endeavor to strengthen my language ability. Mopping was a new thing for her so I had to show her how to do it and then she apologized for being slow at it. I told her that she'd get the hang of it and in no time she'd be mopping quickly. She was very pleasant to have around the house and seems to really love the kids! Thanks for praying for us in this. Keep praying that she'll work out long term. It's going to be a huge help!
We have other good news today as well. We now have a phone AT OUR HOUSE!!! Yippee. That means you can all call us and we can chat. Ok, well that's not so likely but hey at least we can email from home and hopefully will be able to keep the updates coming more regularly.
So today was a pretty good day at the Potter house. How was it at your house? you know we'd love to hear of the mundane things of life back home. We kno we are not the only ones with things happening. Will you share what is happening in your life too?

I am so pleased to hear that today was a good day in the Potter household. You have really had your share of trying things in the new culture. I am happy about your new housegirl. I pray things will work out with her. We are doing well. George is in his 4th week of radiation. He seems to be doing well. He is getting somewhat tired, but they told us this would happen. I pray for you really often and will continue to do so.
Love,

Glad to hear that your house help is working out so well for you. Nice to see the pics of Papua, such a treat that even though there is so much change, some of it is truly beautiful. Keep looking to the author and finisher of our faith to get you through, Love, Beth
