Aug. 22 Packing, cleaning and WONDERING

Today will consist of packing, weighing the bags and likely repacking some. It never fails that we end up needing to shuffle a few items to the 'come later pile' to fit in items that we deem more important at this time.

The BIG question mark in our return travel to Haiti ? Tropical storm / Hurricane Irene. Her path continues to drift a bit to the North so that this mornings Update shows some of Southern Haiti now clear but unless the path continues to shift in a more northernly direction she will pass over central and northern Haiti on Tuesday. Our plane should be landing in Cap Haitian at 8 a.m. Wednesday morning?

As the only thing we can do at this time is to pray.....we continue to pray. More for the safety of the Haitian people but as well for our return trip home. In the last 13 years we've been delayed twice due to hurricanes-once while we remained in Michigan and once in Florida.

Our time in the USA flew by being full of travel and visiting. Time to return to school and our Haiti lives. We received official approval from Global Partners on Friday to return for our next term. YEAH!

Thank you for praying.

Sounds like you have had a great visit back to the States and even fit in some "school" with your field trips. Smart homeschool mom! We will pray for safe travels back.
