Back

Okay, so here it goes! The Horvat-Kavais are back! Watch out blogworld!

We are painfully aware of the fact that it’s been about two months since our last check-in here (not counting what Arpi wrote yesterday). It took us a while, but we have figured out why this happened. Both of us are very good at getting too involved in our everyday responsibilities, so much so that sometimes we forget to have fun, and just write emails, or a blog for that matter. Sad, but true. Workaholics unite!
Lots and lots has happened of course. Last week both of the English courses ended that I have started teaching in September. My students did quite well, and I discovered that teaching makes you into somewhat of a mother-hen (not that there’s another kind). To explain: I was so nervous for my students, and I rooted for them, and cheered them on throughout the exam, and at the end, of course was as proud as if they were my kids! Crazy! It’s a great feeling when you see them excel at what you have taught them, it also makes you realize that what you do is all worth it. This should give me a push for the next few weeks for sure!
Today I had the day off from work, so I went to Vajta with Arpi – decided to use this day to visit my friends there. It is always good to see everyone. One of my best conversations was with my friend R. (can’t disclose her name, you’ll see why), who is moving to a Muslim country in a month to be a missionary there. As she shared how the Lord had put these people on her heart, and how He had lead her, it made me cry. Our God is so awesome, and He does such amazing things, and we get to be a part of them, and watch them unfold. We get to see Him change lives forever! She told me of a man she had met there on a previous visit who has been a Christian for a year now, but still hasn’t told his wife because he can’t. His life had changed completely, he found the meaning of life, and he can’t share it with his wife! How sad is that?
So if you are reading this, feel free to shoot up a prayer of support for this brother of ours, and the countless others like him in similar situations. We have things real easy and good, you know.

And, on a completely different subject, sweet Arpi got his new portable mini-laptop-desk thingie today! It made him very happy, as now it will be almost like he has a real (albeit mini) office! Guys are so very cute with their love and excitement for gadgets and other computer-related gizmos. Especially my husband. He is the cutest for sure.
