This is Just the Beginning!

Day Eleven:

You will be on a plane to come home this time tomorrow....I can't believe that the adventure for now is coming to an end but I know that this is all just the beginning! The beginning of a new perspective for us and for a new outlook for those around us who have been touched by it all. It truly is just beginning of more than we could possibly imagine!

I had dinner with the "Big Girls" (Amy, Carol, Jamie and Stace) for my bday and had the best time. We laughed a ton and I was able to hear about their vaca's and I shared a few stories about you. We have decided to have "breakfast for dinner" sometime after you get home and prepare a PowerPoint slide show of your stories~ They will be waiting, oh and you and Michael will be nurses to your bro, BJ and Jason after they get "snip-snipped"-during the Master's of course!! (We figured that a hotel room would be in order. )Yes, we had some laughs! I love you, precious girls! Thank you....

Maddie has had quite the day being an entrepreneur in her own jewelry making company. She has been making her jewelry on the stairs, which is funny but works for her and she is obsessed but does that really surprise you? She is so excited and she has me hook, line and sinker, because Hobby Lobby is our fav store right now! She is so persuasive....I wonder where she got that characteristic from....

Oh, and Ally lost her tooth today while eating cereal. (no pulling necessary!) She was beyond excited...which reminds me that the tooth fairy better get her rear in gear before she forgets!

I took a pic with my phone but I don't know how to put it on here, but you will see it soon!

Oh, baby~ I am so ready for you to be home but I feel like these days have gone by fast, considering. The girls and I have had great support....our friends and fam have been out of this world and Heaven sent and we are SO very blessed to have all of them in our lives.

Thank you, Lord for keeping the girls and me distracted! Thank you for the peace you have given in friends and families emails, calls and dinners! It has all been such a HUGE blessing and really just opens my eyes to this love that is all around us and that is so easy to take for granted. Thank you for keeping Brian safe and for all that you have done in Kampala, Africa and around. Wow, there are just no words! It is just the beginning, isn't it, Lord?!!?!

Amen!
