4 weeks from today I'll be in Africa.
I really can't believe it's getting so close! I've dreamed of going to that distant continent for most of my adult life.
My head is spinning with things that need to be accomplished. Packing, getting donations for the orphans we'll be visiting, scheduling my kids' days and their caretakers while I'm gone, making sure my family knows how to do the laundry, finishing my vaccinations, visiting the doctor to get my malaria prescription, creating a display at church with the orphans' pictures so that they can be prayed over by our church family, preparing my students' work, putting together some freezer meals
Can I just say that 2 full weeks is a long time to leave my sweet family?
I'm working on multiple mental checklists right now.
Today I made my first freezer meal for them. I'm hoping to make the time over the next few weeks to make 5 or 6 more. I figure if I leave them with 3-4 meals a week, they'll be happy. If not, at least they now have 1!!!
