We look forward to filling in the dates of these events very soon! We are praying that our travel approval gets here in the next two weeks. If it is here before September 8th, we will leave with the next travel group on September 14th!! God's timing is perfect. I was praying and asking that God might show me why we were not able to leave with the next travel group going on August 31st. Before the end of the day, Tacia was trying on her new sweater to wear at school. It was then that I realized how important it was for me to be with her on her first day of public school. There is quite a bit that I can get done for Jace, Jordon and Tori those first few days of school also. God is good and does know what is best for us. He is faithful!
