Talk about a good mail day ...

Wednesday, December 05, 2007

Woohoo! Passports arrived today, much more quickly than anticipated! (If I had a working digital camera, I'd post a LOVELY photo). The kids and I were really excited. The passports were mailed in separate envelopes, so each of the kids opened their own, which was pretty cool. (Of course, they both griped about how they looked in their pictures; in reality, the pictures were pretty good.) Anyway, we're one more tiny step forward toward a site visit to Ireland.

Another cool thing -- the World Harvest newsletter came in the same batch of mail, and there's an article in it on the Mission Apprenticeship Team (one of the teams we plan to visit). It was neat to read about aspects of the team's ministry and challenges we hadn't yet talked with them about.

Well, I promise to blog on a different topic next time. Some options: what I'm doing when I'm not blogging; "the book list"; sights I've noticed along HWY 411 that have given me cause to wonder; some great bit of poetry. Hmmm -- wonder which one it will be.

Passport photos are like driver's license photos, you just never know what you are going to get. Good to hear from you again, Laura, I've missed you.

My picture was bad! You admitted it! :) I think I am getting more excited about the site visit as it draws closer. Hopefully they will soon give us dates to go!

It's so good that at least one of the Morgans has remembered to BLOG...Mercy me - I'm glad things are moving along as they are...I know that for you all it is a snail's pace but it is happening quickly and we praise the Lord for you and this opportunity for the family...How's the fund raising going? Has anyone offered Steven a one-way ticket yet? Just a thought!

Well, you know what they say-"If you look like your passport picture, you're not well enough to travel." Mine is so bad, I didn't even show it to Trace! I'm so excited for you guys!!!
