Well, we made it. We’re here in good ol’ North Carolina. We’ve had McDonald’s Quarter Pounders and ordered food in English. We’re trying to get used to being able to drink from the faucet and drive again!
But mostly, we are just blessed by friendly faces and warm hugs.
We’ve already spent some time with both sides of the family and a enjoyed a little bit of our traditional Christmas. We’ve enjoyed a genuine, affectionate welcome from our home church, and (finally) tasted the bread and wine of Communion at long last.
Avery has been amazingly well-behaved and is really providing great entertainment (my, she really has grown, and we see it better as we look through the eyes of those who have missed us for four months!)
We’re really thankful to be back, to rest and to enjoy the blessings of friends and family which the Lord has given us.
A blessed and merry Christmas to you all.
The Fishers
