So imagine my confusion this morning, whilst I was updating our bills, when our online bank statement said we withdrew money from our checking account at 10pm on 6/22.... and then again at 8:57pm on Monday night?!
:9/
Imagine my surprise (or lack there of) when I checked with Joy and she knew nothing about it either. Apparently one of our fine establishments here in Guatemala took some extra liberties and cloned my credit card. The toll? As it stands presently just over $517 missing...
I spent time talking with our bank, State Farm, walking through the details of what we need to do next. Obviously, my card has been flagged and canceled. There will be contestation papers awaiting us in NH when we arrive next week. We don't use Joy's card very often so they kept it active.
Oh the funs of life...

Survival is for the Fittest, eh?
It is Wednesday, day number four without Joy - who is teaching at a Guatemalan music camp in a nearby town.
When asked, "how you doing without Joy?", I've been responding with, "oh, we're surviving." My hat goes off to any and all single parents, or parents whose situation results in one parent carrying the bulk of the load for any period of time.
Parenting is difficult at the best of times... ok, nap time is normally a pretty good time. In our case the shoe is on the other foot from April when I was in NY and Joy was here with the kids.
Praise the Lord for the Rivera Family who have offered to take the girls today. I will keep Sara and take her to the Canadian Embassy to submit her Canadian Citizenship documents - Oh, yes, we know how to have a good time in our family.

What a blessing!
Friday morning I (Kenneth) took Loren & Bambi to the airport. This ended an amazing visit of some very awesome friends.
Many things were done, places visited, and LOADS of "Ticket to Ride" was played.
Tomorrow Abigail heads off to her very first summer camp. What are we going to do without her for the next five nights?! Emma and Sara are going to be somewhat lost without their big sister around.
After Abigail returns then we have a couple days and Joy heads off to teach at a Guatemalan Music Camp. She will be gone for five or six nights. When she comes back we quickly pack for our trip to the States. Loads of work remains to be done before the trip.
That is all for now...
