2 days til Ethiopia!!!!

HELLO! We leave for Ethiopia in TWO DAYS!!!! 

Cannot believe it is here!!!!

The packing thing is completely overwhelming me though....  So I'm sitting by the pool instead! 

Seriously. 

I just wanted to document this ohsospecial time we had last week.  

Just Amazing.

One of our elders at our church asked our family to come to the weekly elders meeting so that they could pray over our family... 

Which I guess means you are doing something really good, or really bad, or in our case.... In desperate need of prayers for this whole big shebang!  

Because seriously HE does not call the equipped.... He equips the called (let's hope so anyway!)

So.... We had such a sweet time of the elders in our church praying over us. Possibly a little overwhelming too!  

We walked in that room and holy moly- who knew how many men / woman were in there?????

 Kinda crazy overwhelming.

One of the greatest things about it was that.... 

I had a list of things that I would have liked specifically prayed for, if they had asked.  

They didn't.  

But do you know.... 

That every single prayer request that I would have asked for, 

was covered by these men of God.  

It reminded me that God knows just what we need.

We are so blessed! 

And we cannot wait to meet our newest little blessing!!!!

And it would be super great if we would pass court while we are over there so that we can show you --- SERIOUSLY--- the most precious little boy on the planet! 

I promise.
