We're going to Colombia!!

For those of you who haven't heard, we've got a travel date to go to Colombia! We will be united as a family on August 18th, almost a full week before Yamile's birthday. We appreciate your prayers on our behalf. In fact, the day we found out when we'd get to be with Yamile, Lenna and I had just prayed that the Lord would allow us to travel on or before August 20th. The Lord answered our prayer in an amazing way!

We have now made our travel reservations - we'll be leaving the US on August 15th and arriving in Bogota that evening. After two nights in Bogota we'll fly to Neiva and then get Yamile the next day.

Our year-long process, which has felt like a slow but determined march toward a final destination, now feels like a mad dash to the finish. So little time and so many loose ends to tie up. Stay tuned for more details as our adventure continues.
