Today we slept in a bit. Min was even awake before us! We planned on spending a bit of today just trying to get any computer stuff finished as we both just got new computers over the last few weeks. And rule out any issues with any electronics before we go.

Min treated me to a pedicure, manicure and massage today. It was wonderful. Everything has been so stressful lately it was a much needed day of pampering! Once we were done we headed out to Walmart Min wanted to get a couple of plants and I wanted to get a memory card for Michael’s new video camera. We also looked around for a couple of baby things for the little one before we headed back. Once we got back I did some cooking and we just relaxed for the rest of the day. We really needed this last couple of days to be this relaxing and not stressful and full of sad goodbyes. Scott and Min are so excited for us and are not sad that we are leaving (well they are but they don’t feel like Africa is another world). They have been so supportive and I am so glad they have been able to share in all of this chaos of the last month with us.

Tomorrow we will be getting up, doing any last minute organizing and getting ready to leave. We should be leaving at about 2 to get to the air port by 3:30ish. My stomach is now full of knots and I am starting to feel terrified of what is to come. I know in my head that the Lord will take care of us but this is the last huge step that we need to take to follow God’s calling on our lives and I wonder what is in store for us, satan will not be happy tomorrow.

Art’s mouth is really hurting him. This is not good.
