6 Days and the Past 6 Weeks

The past six week have led up to what is sure to be a crazy six days. Why? Because in just six days, June 23rd, I’m moving to East Asia!!! The past six weeks have been full of some doubts, a lot of wonder and awe at how He works things out and of course some fun times with my family.

I admit there were times when I doubted that things were going to come together, which led to doubts of “is this really what I am supposed to be doing?” But these times always ended with me being gently reminded that yes this is what I am supposed to be doing and that the one who asked me to do it is going right along with me. There have been just as many times that I have been amazed at how He has met my needs and provided everything I need in order to take this next step.

I have enjoyed some fun times with my family, including a road trip to a cousin’s wedding with my Mom, Dad, two sisters and seven month old niece, all in the same car. On the same trip my mom and I also walked about half a mile down an Arkansas highway to retrieve a hanging bag of clothes that had blown out of our car-top carrier.

We also took my niece to the Dallas Arboretum one afternoon, she was quite the trooper and performed well for the camera.
