Patsy A great account, Est. What a wonderful mixture of experiences! God has guided, protected and blessed you all this year and he knows his plans for you for the year, and more, ahead. Don't forget to say goodbye to Trevor-meow! Say hi to Abi, Rito and Juan from me. Try to get SOME sleep between now and seeing you early Tuesday am! xx

re: Coastal times and a near death experience.
Steve Collins Hey Champion great seeing that smile on your face with your dad. Hope you are keeping well, sounds like you're always pretty busy! Sorry been out of touch, have been wondering how you're doing quite alot.. Any how, I'm off to teach SEN children at a small school near Taunton soon and leaving FE behind. Want to make more of a difference each day, as they're so precious. The mild autumn is just about to give way to winter here, I think first frosts will hit in a week or so. Been looking at the news around with some despair lately as there seem to be so many people suffering. I wonder what the legacy will be for the next generation. On a brighter note I'm still doing little circuits at home and my students are keeping me busy. Not long until the Christmas break and we can have a go at celebrating peace and family and friends. You must be returning soon? When you do, safe journey. All best. Steve

vicki champion For me it was just one hundred percent what I wanted. To be with my daughter and share her life just a little bit. So proud, so pleased and had so much fun xxx

Ruth Tisdall Hey Esther! I'm loving reading your blogs and finding out what you are doing! I am now in Finland studying nursing for 12 weeks but I am far from speaking finnish so communication with patients is near impossible! Looking forward to reading the next blogs and having you back in the UK to hear about it first hand :) x

Patsy This blog is such fun, Est. I really enjoyed reading it and had lots of smiles as I did so. It reminded me of 'Bloom where you are planted' and if it's in the kitchen then it's there you must bloom! xx

Patsy Medellin sounds really lovely. Perhaps it is the church with the American Pastor that my friend has contact with. The story of Nate is very moving - what a witness. How have things been since being back in Bogata? Longing to find a time to Skype!

John S. I'm glad you were able to have a good holiday! I too find that smaller town life is much more conducive for building relationships, building language, and seeing nature. I hope you get the chance again to go out into smaller towns.

Frederick I hope you take this the best way possible: The title reminds me of my little nephew falling after running all around the house, getting up quickly, and saying -preempting my sister's worrying attendance to his possible pain,- "I'm okay! I'm okay!" We must be a bit like that to God's...little kids running around and falling so much...yet getting up again. I felt some sort of "pride" when he said that...perhaps God feels that for us, too.
