Packing-R-Us

With less than two weeks to go until we leave, I must confess that my room is a mess. We are slowly getting things accomplished. After much debate over packing our gifts for the orphanage in a box or a suitcase, we have opted for a suitcase. My rationale was that it is easier to roll a suitcase than carry a box. My hubby's rationale was that you can throw a box away. Both good ideas.
It is such a joy to finally be at this stage. I am enjoying getting everything ready to go. It was especially fun to pack Evan's suitcase. I can't wait for those cute little clothes and shoes to be on my little boy!
A matter of prayer for us is the FLU. Ellyn had it this week. Kayla is going to bed saying she is hot and has a headache. My stomach isn't feeling too hot! Please pray that whatever we have we get through it and get well before we go. I guess it is better to get it now than when we have to leave!
"Give thanks to the Lord for He is good and His love endures forever!"

Hi Kim,
We are in the midst of packing just as you are. I hope the flu is short lived and does not slow you down too much. We are to arrive late on Sunday evening. Since it is unlikely that we will be allowed to see Dong on Monday, we will probably try to connect with a friend and her family. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family soon.

Blessings sister...Joni
