The Morys have lived in the Philippines since 1995. This photo shows Josiah with a neighbor, who is holding a monitor lizard he caught.
Monitor lizards look like big lizards but they taste like chicken.
I'm finding that I'm learning a lot from my four kids. At Christmas time, our four kids went through the toys that they had and, on their own, selected many items to give away. Even with two overflowing bags of what had been some of their favorite things, they wanted to do more. Two teenage girls we had met from the mountains of Bohol were going to see their families at Christmas, so our son Josiah picked one of his very favorite toys to give away and then our other kids followed so that all of the girls' little brothers and sisters would have a present. In January 1999, our son Jacob noticed a neighbor boy working out in the field on a warm day with a hat that was almost in shreds.
