Esmé's Mommy here.
Our internet access ended a little sooner than planned with a crashed modem last Thursday! So I'm just squeezing in a quick update at my sister's house before rushing back to the chaos of our home.
Yes, we are still packing up. We are officially no longer working for Maranatha. We're not quite sure where we're headed yet, or we would have told you sooner. Honestly... So right now we're trying to figure out what to do with our stuff. Fun!
I will be trying to get a few posts and guest posts scheduled and check in with you again a little later, hopefully when we know a little more.
Now it's back to sneezing at dusty boxes and running through mazes and trying to find food to eat and dishes to use as we work to empty our house as much as possible!
Oh yes, I am still looking for some guest posters this month if you are interested! And if you've emailed me on this already, thanks so much - I will get back to you shortly!

Hola from Mozambique!
I am FOUR months old today, and I think it's about time to get started blogging. Mommy will have to help me type, of course - I can hit the mouse pretty good (especially when Mommy's reading the online books too slow and I want to move to the next page), but my spelling is not so good yet.
So, where do I start? Well, who am I? We sing in the mirror every morning: "Who am I? I am Esme'. I am special to Jesus." I really like mirrors - sometimes they make me giggle. And then Mommy and Daddy giggle, too. Today Mommy and I had several giggle sessions; they were so much fun Mommy is going to add them to my daily checklist. We'll have to talk about the daily checklist later.
But I digress. Back to who I am. I was born April 3, 2007 at 1:06 a.m. in Roseburg, Oregon, and I weighed 7 lb 7 oz. My parents' names are Mommy and Daddy, and they are the BEST parents in the WORLD. (I have to say that, since I would have a hard time making a living right now if I got kicked out of the house.) They are also VERY OLD. Daddy just turned 38!
Just before I turned 6 weeks old, we got on a plane and started flying to South Africa. It was a LONG trip, but I did really well, and only one plane was delayed while Mommy changed my VERY POOPY diaper. She calls me a world class traveler.
After spending a few days with Daddy's family there, we flew to Maputo in Mozambique, where we live now. We are working with Maranatha on building 1,000 churches here, and I am the youngest worker. If you want to keep tabs on this project, check out Auntie Susan's blog.
And now, a lifetime later, I am much bigger. Last week at 16 weeks, I weighed 16 lb 12 oz (7.6 kg).
Well, I have lots more to say, but it is past my bedtime now, so check in again later!
