In Ukraine

This collection of posts was created over a period of several years as part of a column called In Ukraine that I used to write for Assist News Service. The point of the column was to give readers a sense of what it was like for an American missionary mom to raise kids overseas, but it’s full of reflections on parenting and life in general as well.
