I have that good-proud feeling!

Today was a typical Sunday but with extra feelings of pride and awe for Colin. Today, at church, the person who was supposed to translate was sick and so Colin filled in. He translated the entire sermon for the first time. It's amazing that just over two years in Cambodia, he was able to translate a sermon!

I'm thankful for the opportunity we have to learn the Khmer language. I'm so glad we spent an entire year focused on the language and culture. It gave us a great foundation to continue learning.

There are many days I feel so incompetent in Khmer and overwhelmed at how much I don't know. I wish I knew more, I wish I could speak more naturally, I wish I understood everyone, etc. Two years ago, we never thought we'd be able to learn the alphabet and learn how to read and write. But now we can!

I'm usually so focused on where I want to be and I forget to take a moment and see where I've come from.
