We're back

Team Nicaragua is home safe and we all have many stories to tell. While there was some trying things I have to say that the trip was a great success and the Lord really used this time to touch me and to help bring a little clearer vision into my calling. Just ask me one on one and I will share what I know so far. It's hard to pick out one or two highlights from a trip but I would have to say that there are two little boys who I will miss very much. Franklin (who everyone fell in love with and I think we should all pull our resources and adopt him) and Elieazar (who Robert knows very well I am told). I have a story about Elieazar. I was playing with him and he took me into his room so he could show me all his stuff and where he sleeps. While we were in the room a moth flew in and Elieazar got a broom for me and told me to knock it down. So I did but what follows might be the cutest/strangest thing I have ever seen. He picked up the moth and got into his closest and pulled out a toy motorcycle. He put the moth on the motorcycle and drove it around his room for awhile. He then took the moth and made a bed for it out of some sheets and a blanket and then he climbed onto his bunk and pulled down his stuffed Pluto and laid it by the moth.

I look forward to catching up with some of you and telling you all about the trip, or as much as you can stand to hear. Thanks for all your prayers and support and I am glad that home group went so well. It sounds like it was a great discussion. Thanks Gina for everything, you are awesome!
