Leaving in the morning!

It is hard to believe that our day has finally come. We head out in the morning to catch the first of our flights. We have been working towards this day since just after Christmas.. and here we are. I'm hoping we are not forgetting anything major, but otherwise I am rather calm. I thought I would be a nervous wreck when this day came. Maybe that will be tomorrow. It is getting very real around here. Some tears shed already, but still everyone is holding up rather well considering. Shelby realized I would not be here for our nightly prayers and bedtime song. She has been 'missing me' a lot already today. Abby has been a little clingy tonight as well so I think they are starting to 'get it'. Please pray for all of our family at home. This is a big change and a lot of responsibility has been shifted to shoulders that are gracious to except the weight. Pray for our travels and that all goes well with both of our girls paperwork. Looking forward to being able to update you with some GOOD news! :) God bless each of you and thank you again for you prayers and support. To those families that are leaving out soon themselves.... God Speed- you are in my prayers.
