He PASSED!

A few weeks ago Pete left Cade and I to fend for ourselves in Salatiga while he took a quick trip to Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia.  We had a great time of mother-son bonding while Pete was away, but missed him as well. 

The purpose of his trip?  To take mandatory flight and maintenance tests required by the Indonesian government so that he can do just that - fly and maintain aircraft once we are done with language school.  A week after his return home we learned that he had passed both flight exams and his maintenance exam!  What a relief to be one step closer to the work we've been preparing for all this time!  It's amazing to see God's hand on each step and to know He is going before us and preparing our way.  

In a matter of weeks we will pack up our belongings and move to our new city here in Indonesia where Pete will pilot medical evacuation flights and help teach high-schoolers basic maintenance knowledge.
