Welcome.
I'm April Ispas. But for 37 years I was April Folkertsma and I blogged (not for 37 years, but for 5) at www.aprilfolkertsma.blogspot.com under the title Learning.
I'm not done learning. But life has changed.
In less than 3 years I moved to Romania, married, moved back to the states, had a child, and am expecting another child. With lots of learning in between.
And struggling.
And rejoicing.
For many years I fought hard to find my vocation, the call on my life. I believed it was to be a wife and mom, a writer maybe, a friend, a listener.
The journey led me to Portland, Seattle, India, Sri Lanka, Romania.
And then, back to my hometown in Southern California.
Today I'm longing to create a soil in which the trees our little family is planting will flourish.
A marriage.
Children.
Him.
Me.
Us.
The future. The hope.
And here I'll write about those things...knowing full well that all that has come before goes into the mix of that soil. I wouldn't be who I am without the past.
I hope you'll join me as I blog about it all: the past. the now. the hope. the Glory.
