Our annual week at Pinebrook Bible Conference started yesterday. It's great to see our kids again and spend some time with them. This year is a little different for us, though. We've decided to spend the week serving as line monitors during the meals. This means that our week is free and the $$ that would have been spent to spend the week here can be put toward the adoption. What a blessing that is!! Our church usually pays for most of our week here, but this year it will be to bring our children home. I am thrilled!! :-) Since we know almost everyone here this week, it's been a great way to get to see everyone.
One of my friends that I met 12 years ago here at Pinebrook has decided that she will be going to Zambia with us if that's where we ultimately end up. Our stay there could be any where from 3-6 weeks. Ralph will only have to stay until we meet our children and then he can head home. Carol will be with me to keep me company and help with the children. It will be great to have a companion after Ralph leaves. And then Ralph will be able to get all of the necessary "stuff" that we will need -- carseats, stroller, winter clothes, etc. We'll hold off getting any of that until we know the ages and sex of our children. More excitement if building. I can't wait to get my children home!
