Well after an entire semester of no blogging, I’ve finally found myself in a place to start posting updates again! We’re in Cairo right now trying to work our way through the maze of this great city. I’m reading two fascinating books right now which give me lots to write about. One is called Hieroglyphs for Children (a book I bought for Layla so she won’t be so bored when we go to the temples and so we can write secret messages to one another!) and Cairo: The City Victorious by Max Rodenbeck. The second book is an amazing history of the city for those who are interested in this part of the world. Overall though, things in our part of the city have been fairly quiet, thank the Lord, but things are expected to heat up a bit on the anniversary of the revolution (the 25th of this month)… so please keep the city in your prayers.

I’m going to go ahead and post this though before I delete it or forget about it…!
