Anticipation!

See that lovely family above? I'm going to be with them in a matter of days! This is my brother Scott, sister Oksana, and my other five nieces and nephew: David, Dasha, Diana, Dalina, and Damara! They live in Ukraine and God has opened the door for me to go and see them for a few weeks with my parents. I'm so excited; it's been close to three years! I can't even imagine how changed the children will be from what I remember; it will probably be a bit of a shock at first. I'm anticipating getting some serious "Auntie Time" in, though, and I hope to love on 'em every minute I can.

Mom and Dad will meet me in the Boston airport (where, incidentally, Mr. and Mrs. Gren will be leaving on the same day on a flight to California) and from there we'll hit London for two days, then on to Kiev where we'll meet Scott (teaching at a Bible School there right now) and he'll accompany us on an overnight train ride to their region of Ukraine.

Sounds like an adventure, doesn't it?

I'm always game for an adventure.

(Particularly those involving a new stamp in my passport and nieces and nephews.) :) So...

Via Con Dias, My Darlin'!

...Er actually that's what you should be saying to me, but I have that song in my mind so out it came.
