This is a really exciting time for soccer players in our family and neighbourhood: for over 2 weeks we have two visitors from the Netherlands who are really good soccer players, and have come to help children practice their soccer skills!

This week the boys were supposed to interview someone and write up their report, which is perfect! One of our visitors is a trained teacher, so he even prepared the boys for the interviews and helped them organize their answers! (Mom enjoyed both a break and a good look at the final results.) Nate interviewed Jos, and Pete interviewed Fabian. Here are their results:

Nate wrote "Interview Jos"

Jos is here for 3 weeks. He plays soccer with us. I am going to ask him some questions.
Nate: Why do you want to be a teacher?
Jos: Because I like kids and especially groups.
N: How old is your oldest brother?
J: He is 24 years old.
N: Why do you like soccer?
J: Because I can do it well, and can put my energy in it.
N: Do you like soccer computer games?
J: Very much!
N: Do you have your own house?
J: Yes, I have! I live with a friend in that house.
N: Do you practice soccer every Tuesday?
J: No, not on Tuesday. On Monday and Wednesday, sometimes Friday.

Fabian's answers from Pete:

Pete: How long did you practice being a goalie?
Fabian: 13 years.
P: How do you like bananas?
F: Very much.
P: How long have you been in Thailand?
F: 2 weeks.
P: Are you on a soccer team?
F: I am on a soccer team.
P: How are you good at goalie?
F: Good.
P: How much do you eat?
F: Sometimes a lot.
Pete: I am glad that Fabian came to our house.

  1. Dear Pete and Nate,

    I really enjoyed reading your interviews with the soccer players.

    I have just read your mom and dad's e-mail about the flooding. I bet you will have stories to tell about these interesting times.

    We continue to keep you in our prayers.
