Okay. Not really. But I am going to Africa. I actually got to go a year and a half ago. It was a trip that changed my life. But wait. Thirteen years ago, I had the amazing experience of going to China with my sister-in-law to pick up her newly adopted daughter/my newly acquired niece. By the way, her birthday is tomorrow. Happy Birthday, Aubre. That also changed my life. So I guess the reality is that any trip can change your life. In Africa, though, I actually get to help people. I can't wait to see my little friend, Salma.
Salma is tucked under my left arm. |
I am going to be gone for five weeks. I have never been away from home for five weeks. Who will mow the lawn and clean the house? Well, I don't ever mow the lawn (Chris does), and I probably have let the house go longer than five weeks, so I don't know that that is much of a problem. Time to stop worrying about that and get on with packing.
I am giving you a heads up because the fundraising campaign begins today. I apologize in advance, but I also hope you will find it in your heart to help with our project.
