We are Leaving on a Jet Plane

In less than an hour, we will begin the journey to bring our little girl home.  I cannot even begin to tell you the thoughts going through my head, but they sound something like this:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I really do not have time to even be sitting here.  But I cannot leave without just praising God for all He has done to get us here.  We have been blessed beyond measure by Him and His church.  If you are reading this, you are probably among those.  We have people schooling our kids, bringing meals, transporting and just loving on them while we are gone.  We  have had people donate money, give much needed advice and best of all pray like crazy!

Thank you to every one of you.  In the craziness, I have probably not written a note and I may not have adequately expressed my gratefulness.  But the kindnesses have not gone unnoticed or unappreciated.

Please, do not forget us now.  Keep bombarding Heaven on behalf of our sweet girl so we can bring her home.  And, please pray that we would be bold and faithful in pointing people to Christ throughout every step of this process.  It is because He took me, an orphan, in that we have the power to do this ourselves.  This is not about us and I never, ever want that to be what is noticed.  There is NOTHING good in us, so any good, any blessing, any smile, any chills....they come from Him and to Him be the glory!

Blessings, friends and we will try to keep you posted...from AFRICA!
