APRIL 6!!!

Its finally!!! looking like we have a date of travel! We have reserved seats on flights leaving April 6 which means I will be with my girls April 8!!! I'm so excited!!! We are packing like crazy to move everything out of our house in time, also all the last minute details that are required when you move out of the country for 8-9 months are enormous. I will be so glad when everything is finished.

Other news!! I bought a double jogging stroller off of craigslist the other night! A brand new instep run around double jogging stroller...got such a great deal!!! I love craigslist!

I'm getting so excited to be back at the orphanage with all the kids! The kids there are simply amazing and beautiful, their stories are simply incredible...so many that were almost dead and now are healthy and happy!! Its amazing to see what the Lord can do, how he can begin a work and make it blossom from and orphanage where kids could come to die in comfort and with love, to a place where the kids instead of dying like everyone said they would, are living, and going to school, and will hopefully impart great change in their country as they grow up to be successful adults! The kids are the future! So many children in Zambia are neglected or abused, but they are the countries future..they need to be nurtured and taught what is right!!!

Well, I hope that you all will pray for yus and Zambia!! The Lord is doing an amazing work, and I'm so excited that I get to be involved in even a tiny bit of it!! Even though without his help I will just be a hindrance...cause he doesn't need us...but the change that this will bring into my life, S's life and the 2 little girls that are going to be part of our family will be phenomenal!! Literally can not wait!

  3. Katy,

    We didn't realize you had this, just found it...what a beautiful glimpse into your heart...I barely made it through without sobbing. We are so happy for you and Sid and the girls. Can't wait to be an aunty in person! We are also thrilled for you both that you can return so quickly. Thanks for your place to rent, looks like the Lord, once again can answer two prayers at once, ours and yours!
    Will be in prayer for you all! Can't wait to reunite when you get home!
    Love you!
    Love Kristie (& Darren)
