Hours away!

We are hours away from beginning this journey to Ghana!  I am beginning to relax about the details and let the excitement sink in. My sweet friend keeps reminding me in the midst of all the practical details:  YOU ARE GOING TO GHANA TO MEET YOUR SWEET GIRL AND HOLD HER IN YOUR VERY OWN ARMS!------To which I respond with a HUGE HOOOOOORAY!!!!!!!

 We have been so overwhelmed with and so thankful for the outpouring of love and excitement and support (emotional and very practical) over us from all you wonderful friends and family!  We are so thankful for the community of faith that the Lord has placed us in. Thank you for lifting us up and praying over us as we travel and prepare to meet our little one. And thanks to all you guys who are picking up the pieces for us while we are away (kid care, house stuff, animal care, etc.) God is so good!!!

  My verse this morning for devotions:

"Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is FAITHFUL."   Hebrews 10:23
