If you were asked to write a story about a place what would you do?
What if you had to write about Enoch, Utah? What would you do first?
If I was asked to write this story I would have to find out where Enoch, Utah is.
I would take a map and look up, Enoch, Utah.
After you found it on the map what would you do?
I would want to go there and see what it looked like.
Well, when I started to collect the history of the Van Komen family I took a map and looked at where Groningen was in the Netherlands. Opa and I took a vacation one year and we drove up to Groningen to see what it looked like. The problem was when we came to Groningen we could only stay for a couple of hours.
Have you ever gone to a new town? When you first got there did you know how to find your way around? Did you know which way to go?
I remember when Matthew and Melissa moved behind our house and Tamma came to visit. She wanted to go to their house. Even though she had been there once and she knew that it was not too far away, she wanted me to walk with her the first time she tried to walk to their house. I think she was a little bit afraid she would get lost and not remember which house it was.
That is how I felt about going to Groningen. I saw the City once, but I could not remember anything about what I saw the first time.
Now can you think of a reason why Heavenly Father sent us to work and live in Groningen?
When you were talking about how Tamma didn't want to go bye herself that reminds me of the time when i was going to Matt's house and i was riding a bike and i missed the turn and got lost.
