some challenges

February has been a difficult month. We traveled to Ecuador to fulfill our visa obligations for the children's resident visas, but found the country shut down for two days when we arrived
for a national holiday. So our 2 day trip became a four day trip. It was full of bus rides and vomit from Lauren. However, Guayaquil is a nice place.

Then last week our house was visited by some men early one morning. They broke through our front door and took our new desktop computer and monitor while Caleb and Jacob watched through
bleary eyes. It was about 5am. I came downstairs and escorted them to their taxi, slowly realizing
we had just been robbed.

The heat is hot, and sleeping is getting harder. Our fears of another break-in combined with
the weather have made for some long nights. We would appreciate prayers for our encouragement, faith, and joy. The good news? God is on his throne and is renewing our hope in Him.
