What Do.....

this


and this


and this


have in common??



They

mean

a

trip

"home"

BY MYSELF

to

see

my

parents

and

two

sisters!!!!

My sister Debbie has planned our first ever "sister retreat" (we'll be giving each other pedicures, hence the nail polish), combined with a few days of just hanging out with my original family of five! I leave next Wed. SIX DAYS AND COUNTING!! On the way I will have a 3.5 hour layover in the city where my Tapestry of Grace secret sister from two years ago lives (did ya get all that?) and she is coming to the airport so we will get to meet face to face! I am so excited. God is good. He provided the ticket, the time, and dear friends willing to watch my children on the weekdays when my husband will need to be working. I am so grateful.

I'm looking forward to much soul refreshment. Oh yeah, and fun too. :0)

(p.s. this is not an April Fool's joke!!)

I'm so excited for you!! Praying that the next 6 days go smoothly and you feel prepared and peaceful as you go.
And btw, I held up my end of the bargain too and spoke with the mom. :)

I am SO EXCITED for you. I'm praying you through to the day you fly, through the time with your family, and the trip home, my beloved friend!!! Praying, too, for your family back home to have a wonderful time in your absence.

Love and hugs,
Marsha
