This is Linda Po, she came to our house for the weekend to help with translating for the KaRen family. She is KaRen as well, been here for 5 years. She is a student in another town in Wa. She is studying Micro biology and plans to return to her people to help with malaria. She was sweet and a great help and thankfully she is just a call away if we need a little communication help.
One of the amazing things about this experience is seeing my kids become apart too. They have been awesome, especially Austin, he has really been a good friend, host and helper. Haley obviously enjoys the boys.
I am pretty sure this was their first swing set experience by their reaction. The little willies' in their stomach made them giggle and want out fairly quickly. It was funny to watch.

Linda Po, what a God send.
I don't recall if you said they speak any English at all?
I'll bet the kids will be able to play video games, master all electronics far before they will be able to speak. That may be all they need. :)
They do not speak much english at all. Moon Light can read english fairly well and so does his wife. He will talk to you and does good but she doesnt try much yet. She shows affection with hugs for LeeElla and says some stuff. The kids say almost nothing in english but understand a lot. They are trying but I dont think they fully understand the weight of the situation when they move out on thier own. It is a bit scary to think about.
Way to go Austin! and all of you. We are praying for good times. Love, Matt & Thanita
