Leavin' on a jet plane !!!!!

Dear Friends and Family,
We leave for Liberia in a week!! It is hard to believe that we will have our little girl in our arms soon. We are so ready! It seems like we have been waiting forever, when in reality it has only been 9 months. How ironic!! We would appreciate it if you would continue to pray for us.

1. Smooth & Safe travel.
2. Tristen & Clay to do well while we are gone.
3. The Lord's favor- if He wants us to come home earlier than 14 days.
4. Gracie's health.
5. Rob & Kim's health while traveling.
6. That we would be able to serve and love on the people in Liberia.
7. A strong bond between Gracie and us.

We leave Knoxville on Sat. May 12th at 2:50 and go through Brussels and arrive in Liberia on May 13th. Yes that is Gracie's 1st birthday and Mother's day!! Unless the Lord has other plans we are supposed to come home on Monday night the 28th at 10:35.

We will try and e-mail from Liberia.
Thanks again for all of your support during this emotional process.
We love all of you!
