Tea & Cupcakes!

I’m back!  Schiphol in Amsterdam  was nice- it was just above freezing and the lakes were just melting as we left.  Everyone was wearing scarves so it felt like Christmas!  I like Christmas.  You know the landing strip at SFO that comes in over the water?  For some reason as we made our approach to land the Beach Boys song California Girls started playing in my head.  I don’t think I even own that song but it may have just been symptomatic of my excitement to be back in our lovely state.  It’s been 100 days.

Back Home!

Back in the USA!

I’m safely at Pam’s house now.  Tea and Cupcakes!  Thanks for your prayers- travel was smooth as peanut butter (not crunchy).  Love ya, it’s good to be back, although I DO miss Mozambique.

and Happy Birthday Kiddo!

@Mom: Haha, you used the “@name” twitter reply format. You’re kind of a nerd mom.

I love you.

@ed: I’m a nerd? OK. I dont know what the twitter thing is. I just copied what you did. Hmmm…is it a contradiction to be a nerd and bake pies? I hope not because I am warming up to the nerd moniker. Twitter is a good funny word. I do like that word.
I love you too Ed.

Be happy she’s your special nerd and you are her’s. Like mother like son. That’s what I always said to my boys. Great to have you back young man. Can’t wait to see ya. Your journey has made some deep impressions in my your sons life. Christ showed him things through you that would have never been possible had you not made this trip or kept your blog. Any way welcome home and blessings upon you. Big giant hug from this mom!!!!
