We recently had Josiah share some of his thoughts about living in Argentina as a ¨Missionary Kid¨or ¨MK.¨  If you haven’t read it, check it out here.

Here is the second part of this blog from the perspectives of Jackson (age 8) and Isaac (age 6).  We asked them similar questions and then wrote down their responses.
