Everything converged into a move to Schulenburg, Texas. It was a good place to ride out COVID. The country was a good place for our kids to make memories and roots for a good chunk of their childhood. The people are amazing and we love the community we have found and built.
I worked at the local public school, Talia passed all of her college entrance exams in 8th grade and has been doing dual credit homeschool with her brothers and Zoe has been going to school with me. I'm in the next-to-last course in my Master's degree in Educational Leadership. This has been a good chapter in our journey and Schulenburg will always be our homebase in the U.S.A.
Now, for the next chapter. We have one more move as a family before Talia is old enough to go her own way. We've been feeling like it was about time to move for many reasons that all came together this year. So, we prayed about it and put our resumes out to several different international schools.
Many seemingly perfect places, where it looked like we would be a great fit, didn't work out and we were confident that what was for us would make it all make sense in the end. That's exactly what happened. We are going to a continent we have never lived in before: Africa. We will be teaching at an international Christian School in Kigali, Rwanda.
We never saw this coming, but the peace we have with how this process worked out is unmistakable and we're incredibly grateful.
