We left the kids in Uganda this time. We were very fortunate that my parents were able to come down to watch the kids for us. So the kids are having a blast w/ their oma & opa, and Jesse & I were able to fly alone for the first time in a very long time. It was wonderful. I miss my kids and all, but flying with 3 kids, does not make for a relaxing trip.
We are staying at my sister's beautiful home.... if you've never been in her home, it's like walking into a magazine. Seriously she has some very incredible decorating skills! So we are trying to recoup, although Jesse's schedule is packed full, so it's a little harder for him.
We've already been able to see some friends, which is always wonderful to reconnect. Already went to the dentist (had my first cavity- not fun!) -- i blame this on having to drink bottled water all the time (no fluoride in the water). Got carded... that made me feel good after I just turned 33 this past week. The Uganda weather must be good for me! : )
Still need to do a lot of shopping. Isaac kept telling us that if we go to America we better bring him Lucky Charms. & try to fit in seeing some more friends. Busy times, but always a great time to also feel refreshed.
If you wouldn't mind, please pray for my kids while we are gone. Talked with Rachel yesterday, and she was in tears. I know it's hard for us to be away, but I know they are in great hands! Also pray for my parents, that they will have the energy to keep up with two very energetic boys. Thanks!
