We have news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As you may know Paul an dI have been seeking another teaching position when our contract runs out in June. Over the holidays we went to a job fair in Thailand and were successful in securing another contract. We will be heading to Western Academy in Beijing (WAB) is August. Before you all get excited it is after the Olympics.



I will post some of the photos I took in Thailand in another post. Our time there was very productive. We did get a few days R & R before the fairs began. I was very nervous about the whole thing. I kept asking Paul, "What if we don't get an offer?" Nothing could have been further from the truth. We ended up with 5 job offers and Paul was offered and Elementary Principal position at a school in the Phillipines. Needless to say we had some tough decisions to make. You can research a school online and you can talk to people, but will you be happy? Anyway after much prayer and discussion we decided to go with WAB. It is a ture international school that seems to be a good fit for us. So we are very grateful for all your prayers and support and now you need to start saving for a visit.

We even made their newsletter this week. http://lianxi.wab.edu/featured/article/08/01/worldwide-search-%2526%2523039%3Bwab%2526%2523039%3B-fit

Very cool!

I've been enjoying reading Kimberly Geswein's blog at http://gesweinfamily.com/ (she's a digi-scrapper). They're in Tianjin, near Beijing. Oh, and Heidi Swapp is in Beijing, too! I would love to go see the Summer Palace.
