There is still a lot of work to be done. When I was helping papa in the garden, he said something strange. He mentioned that business in the carpentry shop was a little slow. People aren’t moving to Bethlehem like they were when we moved here. So papa isn’t building as much furniture as he once did. He said we were thinking of moving back to Capernaum. Boy, that would be something; I’ve missed fishing.
In Capernaum, we used to make toy rafts from some scraps of wood from Joseph’s carpentry shop and race them along the shoreline. The pieces were held up from our fingers to our elbows to make sure they were the right size. Then we would tie the pieces together with string and fix a stick to stand straight up on top. Next, we would get some fabric pieces from mama to use as a sail. When the wind was just right, our sails would fill up and the rafts would scoot along the water perfectly. We tied a long string to them so they wouldn’t go too far from us.
