BYE TO MOM & DAD

AFTER 18 MONTHS APART, WE REALLY ENJOYED OUR TIME WITH MOM & DAD. MOM & I ORGANIZED MY WHOLE HOUSE, AND BLU & DAD DID PLUMBING ON THE WILCOX HOUSE. WE WANTED TO GIVE THEM A SPECIAL TREAT AT THE END OF THEIR TRIP, SO WE DID A QUICK TRIP TO ZIMBABWE! THEY SAW THE FALLS, WE ATE AT "THE BOMA", AND WE TREATED THEM TO A SUNSET CRUISE ON THE ZAMBEZI RIVER FOR DAD'S BIRTHDAY! WE WERE SO BLESSED BY THEIR SACRIFICE TO COME, AND IT IS SO SPECIAL TO KNOW THAT NOW, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT NEW DAY, THEY CAN SEE THE PEOPLE AND PLACES IN THEIR MINDS!

NOW WE HAVE 4 WEEKS IN BETWEEN TEAMS WHERE WE WILL BE VERY BUSY GETTING THE WILCOXES HOUSE FINISHED--LOTS OF PAINTING FOR DARBI AND PLUMBING FOR BLU! OUR CHILDREN WILL COMPLETE THEIR SECOND TERM OF SCHOOL AT NEW DAY ON AUGUST 5TH, SO THEY WILL HAVE A FEW WEEKS OFF BEFORE DARBI BEGINS HOMESCHOOL FOR CAEDMON IN GRADE 1 AND CAMBREE IN KINDERGARTEN. THE KIDS WILL ALSO CONTINUE GOING TO NEW DAY SCHOOL IN SEPTEMBER (ONLY HOMESCHOOLING DUE TO OUR 3 MONTH FURLOUGH OCT-JANUARY).

WE ARE HAVING TROUBLE POSTING PICTURES BUT WE WILL TRY TO KEEP YOU UPDATED ON PROGRESS AND ORPHAN ARRIVALS (WE ARE PRAYING FOR 3 MORE GIRLS TO JOIN US!) DURING THESE NEXT 4 WEEKS! GOD BLESS!
