Nate Jr. and Amy Jr.!

Yesterday we heard of a new trend in Y., South Sudan where Nate lived for the past year and a half. One of our teammates wrote to tell us that 2 of Nate's former students in the school have just had babies and guess what their names are? Yep, Nate Yuna and Amy Yusif! By the way, last names in South Sudan are always the father's first names so Yuna and Yusif are the fathers. As well as little Nate and Amy, 2 other babies have recently been born in Y. and were named Stu (after one of the new short-term SIMers) and Evan (one of the missionary kids in Y.). So indeed there appears to be a new trend of naming your children after a missionary! If we're able to procure pictures of these babies we'll post them so you can see.
