So yesterday we get into Miami and we’ve just cleared passport control. We walk down, picked up our luggage and were walking towards the customs screening when this tall, scantily clad girl walks by talking (loudly) on her telephone.
These were her words, “You wouldn’t believe the kind of (expletive) I had to put up with yesterday. I’m tellin’ you—it was some MESSED UP (EXPLETIVE)!”
Nick and I just look at each other rolling our eyes, knowing our kids have heard this woman swearing VERY loudly.
Nia whispers, “Mom, did you HEAR her?”
I kind of sigh and say, “Yes, I heard her.”
Nia says, “I KNOW! Can you believe she SPEAKS ENGLISH?”
*****************
Man, I’ll tell you what-- kids trying to navigate two cultures are SUPER CUTE.
BTW-Had the COOLEST thing happen in the airports today… can’t wait till I can share the whole story.

I totally love your blog and the way you share your journey, so first thanks!
A group of our friends are considering a move near Jacmel to do a business as mission project. I would love to email with you with some questions and share more about our vision. My email is sistrbride@aol.com and I am sure you are pretty busy, so whenever you can. Thanks
Leanne
