Adventures in life and church planting.
In the third month of the year 2006 AD, Matt (a.k.a. shmatt) departed the lands that he had called home for the prior 30 years, set sail across the stormy sea to distant, unknown lands on an epic missionary journey..
The next day his family flew to Melbourne to join him.

Glimpses

July 31st, 2006

EllyLunch at Nandos - the first for us both, and possibly the last.  A couple of hours with daddy at work.  The Pancake Parlour and some French crepe that looked great on the menu but that in the end was hard to imagine was any more than minced-beef stew on an overcooked pancake.  An alright-I-suppose girly flick called ‘Take the lead’ with Antonio Banderas (better known as puss-in-boots in these parts) finished by a two dollar trip on the merry go round.

It was fun while it lasted for me.  I’ll probably have mostly forgotten it in a few weeks.  I guess Elly probably will have too, but I hope that in many years to come, she will have one of those moments when a glimpse of your childhood comes vaguely to mind, and she will recall the night that daddy carried her laughing all the way from the merry-go-round to the car in the rain, both laughing all the way.
