Joel is having trouble keeping his eyes open as we study Russian tonight... actually we both are, but I just happened to get my hands on a camera! Both of us are super excited about the possibility of really learning to communicate better with our national friends and colleagues... but age does have its drawbacks in learning a different language. First of all it takes longer to commit something to memory, but then you have the added problem of trying to stay awake after 7:30 at night ! ! ! !
Seriously it is hard and we DO need prayer, but I think we are both excited about the prospects and we certainly both appreciate Sveta's patience with us.
Please pray also for us to be able to get our work done at the seminary along with our work on language and for me... along with canning and drying food for this winter... I am canning tomatoes this week.

oops! He didn't make it ! :)
