So long, farewell

Our call to travel came this morning...just when we thought it wouldn't come! God likes to do that to me. It sure strengthens and matures me, let me tell ya. So after much anticipation and anxiety, we are off. Our Embassy date (the date we must be there in order to get all the legal stuff taken care of) is June 3rd. But, we first have to take Z to his Mima and Papa's and then we plan on going early to do some sight-seeing. So we leave for NH this Saturday, the 24th. We can't get out to Ethiopia until the 29th which is later than we wanted but, we'll take it. So, a very hectic two days await us as we try to get everything in order. Thank you all for your prayers and support through all of this. We have been abundantly blessed. Please pray for our safe travel, for Z as he has many days without his Mommy and Daddy, and for God to be in each and every detail of the trip. We expect to be back sometime on June 12th. We can't wait to introduce you all to K.
