Tomorrow is the BIG day

I can’t believe tomorrow is the BIG day.  I’m travelling to Nicaragua –by myself!  Without my husband and without carrying a diaper bag and extra snacks for the kids, it almost feels too weird.  After so many years, I get to do something that is all about me and God!  I know you understand.  I will miss my family so much but for five days I won’t belong to my own children –I will belong to the children I get to meet in the schools and churches that work with Compassion International.  To those kids, I will represent you, and the hope of more of you.  Your sponsorship changes their lives and I will experience this for myself and report back to you of the many ways your contributions help to make their lives better.
