The impact it will have on each of us will be continuing for years I'm sure. What a big step we're taking and I'm sure emotions are all over. Be courageous, be encouraged. God is good!
Brad and Sydney and Casey and Natalie - I will miss you all every moment of every day and will keep you in my thoughts at each and every turn. Take care of each other, loveyou very very much (sob, sob gasp gasp) Mommy
Love you Brad, you be a good daddy while I'm gone and try not to worry about Adam and I so far off. Send me lots of pics on email so I can see your beautiful faces and know you're all okay. I love you, thanks for letting me go. Pray for us :)
DAD! Thanks so much for letting mom and I go! I hope everything goes well at home and that the girls are not that much trouble. I love you!- Adam
Girls, have a great time while I'm gone. I'm soo excited for you to get to go to friends' houses and play. Mrs. Estes said Mr. Phil is gone, so you can even be noisy over there :) Be good for daddy. Share your toys and don't fight, like I know you wouldn't anyway but just a reminder ;) wink wink.
Mommy loves you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much and I am going to miss you very much. I will try to learn to use my computer skills and send you some messages all the way from South America. Wonder how long it would take a mailman to get you a letter from there? He'd have a long walk.
I'll pray for you all each day, you do the same for Adam and I. We will need it. I hope to meet girls just your age and find out what they do for fun and how they help their families so when we come back we can talk all about that. Have daddy look on the blog listings from earlier. I posted some neat stuff on the Nazca lines and Machu Pichu. I got you a library book on that in the pink bag too if you want to read it with dad.
Think the aliens made those Nazca lines? Nah...
I thought of something else, maybe you could check out some stuff online with daddy about the animals in Peru. Go to this link but be careful :) it's all in Spanish. Derecha - left, izquierda - right.
Murcielago - guess what that is? Ewww.
How about a guacano? Very important to people in the Andes mountains, and hey, by the way. Every good homeschooled child should know where they are, so go find them on a map :)
Jirafa - you know what that is, without looking right?
And this, this is what Adam and I are going to EAT...
cuy. Guess what that is? I'm not telling but we are so eating it :)
You won't believe it when you find out...look it up here...
