Ok my new goal is a weekly post! Short update: I was officially accepted into the MA. I will finish next April. Also I have been hired at the English Language Center to teach Applied grammar level 5. uuuuhhh?! I don't know about that assignment but it will be a really good assignment and I will gain a lot of teaching experience. This is the highest grammar level at the ELC and I am sure most students know the grammar better than I do. Ila's Spring break ends today and she goes back to teaching at her school tomorrow. (by the way "to" "morrow" used to be a phrasal verb seperating the "to" from the noun, same with "tonight") Other great Ila news, she passed the PRAXIS test. Wahoooooooooooooooooooo! This past week was Spring Break for Ila. She spent a lot of the time cleaning the second bedroom of our apartment in order to get ready for the little one. I studied for my final, which I took yesterday, and the rest of the time we enjoyed by watching Ila's stomach look like something out of a Sci-Fi movie, because Warren moves all over the place making her look very mishappen. Mishappen in a good way ;).

Happy Easter everyone and we hope we all remember what the season is really about. Today in church we heard several very well done talks. In one of these it was mentioned that we can look at the symbolism of eggs on Easter as parts of our testimony and that we are continually searching and growing our testimony much like when little kids go searching for eggs on Easter. The speaker further explained how as the eggs are meant to be found so are our testimonies and that according to our level the eggs are hidden. Those who are younger often have less difficult and more open ways of finding their eggs where as the older children's eggs are more hidden. Much of this can be related to the gathering of our testimonies throughout our lives. We too must search out and find truth and our testimonies on our own. They are meant to be found but we must work for them and that often gets a little more difficult as we get older. we express out love and testimonies of this wonderful season and know that Jesus Christ is our Saviour and Redeemer. We love you all. Kyle & Ila (Warren sends his love through kicks and movement)
