On our way back

Tomorrow, June 4th, the Massos are heading back to Africa.  We have about 17 pieces of luggage and a few prepared for others to bring later.  There are new bikes(the main mode of tranportation), homeschooling curriculum, Acacia's stuff for boarding school (completely different than what she needs for Sudan), clothes, games, vitamins, kitchen supplies, and some treats. We jettisoned the huge M&M bag and Parmesean container from Sam's club.
I am feeling good about the move.  
We've completely enjoyed our time with family, friends, supporters and churches.  We are blown away by the generosity of new and continuing supporters.  We are surprised by God's provision for us.

Now that the trunks are stacked and waiting, our rooms are bare, we pause for a bit of fun. Today is a day of closure and farewell with my brother's family who have hosted us on this home ministry assignment.  Our kids have never been on a roller coaster much taller than Michael, so we are off to Hershey Park for wild rides and wet fun.

Tomorrow there will be many tears, but today a bit of laughter.

I am sure you all are bombarded by a variety of emotions right now. May you have an uneventful, restful journey back "home." Mom

Glad to welcome the Massos back to Africa! Just got a message that they have landed in Entebbe. Glad that the first leg of the journey has gone smoothly!
