Busy-ness and Butterflies


Dear loyal reader (s),

I know that you are expecting a post today continuing "our story" - how our family ended up living and working in Brazil.  But, I am putting my oldest daughter on a plane Sunday morning to go to Africa for 2 months.  We are so busy getting everything ready.  She and I both have nervous stomachs.  We talked about it this morning over coffee and croissants at our favorite coffee shop.  We are not scared.  I am not scared.  OK, I am a little nervous about her flying half way around the world alone.  But once she gets there, I know she will be fine.  I do, however, have a bad case of butterflies in the stomach.  Nervous excitement.  I am totally excited for her - for our whole family and what we will experience through her trip.  I am happy, not sad.  But.....based on all this emotion going on in my head, I just can't make my mind go back 10 years to write the continuation of "our story".  Not today.  So, I know you will understand and forgive.  Please remember Bronwyn in your prayers and keep up with her experience through her blog.

Much love,
Benay
