There’s a frog in my shoe!

Yesterday, I was on my way to play outside. I picked up my shoes to put them on. I noticed the tongue of the shoe was at the bottom of my shoe. So I reached in to pull it out.

There was something squishy in my shoe. It was brown and black. It was a small frog hiding in my shoe. It hoped away. It scared me!

What I Miss From Home!

Guest interview with Arielle

1.) The first thing that I miss is my friends from home!
Why? Because I can be myself around them and they accept me the way I am! They know how I am. They know why I do the things I do because they do the same thing! But here my new friends don't do the same things I did back home. Most all the friends I have here I would at any time of the day, week or year rather be with my friends. Friends my age that I really like to be around are: Joelle, Jijije, and Down. I only get to see my best friend in Thailand Joelle once in a blue moon because she lives so far away! And both Jijie and Down are in another class. I can only see them on Sabbath and once in a blue moon during the week! Anyway I could go on and on about this but for your sake I will go on to # 2.

2.) My family.
I know what you are thinking. You are thinking that my family should be # 1, but the thing is that the family that is not here I only see some times any way! Anyway on to #3

3.) The food!
I really miss the food from home! But it is not as hard to live with as I most people might think! I think when I go back I'll miss the food from Thailand!

Well I think that is all I have time to type now even tho I have lots more to say!
Thank you for reading what I had to say! Just remember that God loves you no mater where you live in the world and he all ways will be there for you to talk to if you don’t have any one else to talk to! Try your best to be content where ever you are!

Help! An Elephant stepped on my toe!

Ouch! An elephant stepped on my toe! Was the elephant big or small? It was a small, baby elephant!

We went to Ayutthaya to visit friends. We went to an elephant camp. I gave the momma elephants pine apples, pea nuts, and grass to eat.

I had fun petting the baby elephant. But it stepped on my toe! It felt like a big giant stepping on my toe. But it didn't break my toe. I didn't like to baby elephant stepping on my toe.

My advice is to be careful when you feed an elephant and watch their feet. Especially the momma elephants!

Tiger Poem

I sat by the tiger's rear,

I couldn't believe I was so near!

I gently held his tail,

While he ate from his pail.

I saw his long claws,

Then I looked at his paws.

When I had to tell the tiger goodbye,

But I didn't want to, and that's no lie.

Sabbath in Thailand

Let me tell you about one Sabbath. Our family went to a new church plant. When we got there, they were praying. To show respect to God they wai when they pray.


Another way they show respect to God is to take off their shoes before going inside.


In Thailand not too many boys and girls know about Jesus. But when they learn about Him, they are eager to get involved and learn more.


One thing they don’t have here are weekly Sabbath School Lessons with the stories in them. Sometimes we share stories from the lessons we brought from home.

They especially like fun action songs. The songs help them learn English too. And they are teaching us some songs in Thai. We are eager to learn their language so we can communicate better.

There are many small groups worshipping all across Bangkok. And often the children lead out in church. It is exciting to see their joy in worshipping the true God in heaven.

Sabbath in Thailand

What’s is Sabbath like here in Thailand?

I like Sabbath because we sing songs to praise Jesus. One thing different about Sabbath in Thailand is the language.
I can’t understand the language because I’m studying Thai. I’m just learning the songs the boys and girls sing. The one song I know in Thai is the National Anthem of Thailand.

I don’t know the kids, but sometimes I can make friends with them.

On Sabbath, we go to the church plants in Bangkok. To get there sometime I have to take a taxi, bus, water taxi, or BTS – the Sky Train.



Sometimes I don’t know where the bathroom is. So I say in Thai, “Where’s the bathroom?”

We eat lunch at the church plants. I like to eat noodles, rice, vegetables, fruits and soup.

The boys & girls at the new church plants don’t know about Jesus. They come to church to learn more about Jesus.

I Like Millipedes

In Thailand there are so many interesting bugs. There are grasshoppers, big spiders and poisonous centipedes. I will tell you about the great giant orange and yellow millipede (GGOAYM).

I found my first GGOAY millipede under some leaves and dirt. I was scared because it was a creepy crawly bug.

But now I am not scared of them, because they are nice bugs. I collect millipedes. When you pet a millipede, it curls up into a flat ball, or coil. I put them back where I found them, after I play with them.

In my garden there are many great giant orange and yellow millipedes (GGOAYM). I like them because they help the soil so the plants can grow better.
