19 days and it's going fast!

This week is Thanksgiving.  This will be the last Thanksgiving we will not have children at our table.  There are so many lasts in our lives and yet the "firsts" that are about to come are so welcome.  We leave in 19 days to meet our children in Ethiopia.  We have watched the videos that friends have sent, we have starred at pictures and blown them up and framed them.  We are preparing their bedroom and the house and yet we turn to God daily to help prepare us and to ask for his help in preparing them.  During this time of year we have so very much to be Thankful for.  May you and your family have a very Happy Thanksgiving and may you remember your blessings as well.
