That is how Afton is describing her feelings this week. I could not agree more! This is the place I am finding myself lately. Can you really be homesick when you are already home? I think so, when all of your kids are not there.
Afton and Andrew are spending the summer working in St Maartin, a small island in the Antilles-West Indies. Half the island is owned by the French, the other by the Dutch. Afton and Andrew are working and living on the Dutch side of the island. They are managing two Del Sol t-shirt shops. It has been a great experience for them and an awesome way to spend the first four months of marriage! I had the opportunity to go visit with them for a few days last week. It was so fun to see where they have been living and to see them enjoy the time there together.
hard at work
The beach right behind their stores. Rough job, huh???
The jungle

fresh spices
While Andrew was swinging in the treetops , Afton and I went shopping. These are a few of Afton's great shots. We ran across a quaint fresh produce market in Marigot, the capitol on the French side of the island.
the beautiful beach
I had time to go to church with them on Sunday before my flight home. These two nursery leaders couldn't resist posing for a picture.
