Emotional Goodbyes

For those of you who don't know I'll give you a brief rundown of the last couple of days.  I had a problem with my airline and they were going to charge me $200 for my luggage.  I was so frustrated.  I was sure God wanted me on this trip and I could not understand why this was happening, then my mom got a call from a "friend" who offered to pay the fee for the luggage!!  To top it off, the twins pediatrician gave me tons of formula and some baby medication to bring as well!  Shame on me for ever doubting how faithful God is!


I spent the day with the twins!  It was their 2nd birthday.  It is so hard to leave them, but I know that their mom and my parents will take great care of them while I am away.  

I have to say that them forgetting who I am scares me so much.  I have to say I felt so at peace when I left their apartment, God is so amazing.

So my journey begins in just a few hours.  I want to thank everyone for their support both financial and prayer.  I could not be doing any of this without you. My flight is at 6pm to Amsterdam, and then to Rowanda and finally I arrive in Entebbe Uganda late Saturday night.  I am incredibly blessed to be going to Amani Baby Cottage for the next 2 months.  Please keep praying for me,  I will be updating my blog as time and access to the internet (and hydro) allows.

I love all of you
