One week in counting. . .

I leave one week from today.  I am nervous, excited, and really missing my kids already!  I was snuggling with Madelyn today and talking about the children in Peru who didn't have a mother to love them like she does.  She asked me if I was going to give them kisses and I said, "Yes, so you better give me more so I have more to share!"  Lydia brought me to tears when she asked if I could bring one home with me (meaning one of those precious children).  Someday, Lydia, I think someday. . .

Today I was busy booking a shuttle to the airport, making some meals for my family while I'm gone, and going over my recipes.  Part of what I will be doing in Peru is working with the cook at the orphanage to teacher her some new things.  I am so excited! 

I also received an encouraging word from someone in my church.  Just the boost I needed.  It was confirmation that I am on the right path, doing what the Lord wants me to do, right now.  To Him be the glory!
