Ready, Get Set, GO!

Well, the last few days have been filled with packing and running around like chickens with our heads cut off. Today was especially hectic as we literally tried to cram a hundred things into the few hours we have left here in America. We are finally finished packing (It's really 10:30pm) and are just about to head to bed.

Please be praying for us as we travel across the Atlantic ocean back to our other 'home'. We leave at 7:15am Pacific time and arrive in D.C. around 4:30pm Eastern time. Then, we leave D.C. around 7ish pm Eastern and will be in the air for about 18 hours and will arrive in South Africa on Monday evening..I think it will be your Monday morning/afternoon. Anyways, please please pray for us. Pray that Elijah will do well and that those around us will have patience with us when Elijah is fussy.

Pray that Dan and I will have patience with each other, giving each other grace and having loving attitudes towards each other. We will both be very tired and it will be tempting to be cranky and mean, so please pray that we will just be nice.

I will try to post as quickly as I can once we are on African soil to let y'all know we got there alright. We miss y'all already! God bless.
