Even though we are on three different continents,something feels good about my children being out and about in the world this summer. Both of them in their own way are contributing to making this world a better place. It's too easy so sit back and let everyone else do something. Am I proud? You bet! All glory goes to God for making it possible.

I signed up for this account to post comments to Carly's blog. I encourage our friends to do the same, as I am sure she would love to hear from you. I talked to her on the phone as she was boarding for Heathrow. She sounded great and ready to go. She has about ten pounds of candy to eat/share before she gets on the African airlines to be under the baggage weight limit!
I can't say enough good things about how focused Carly was about this trip. She worked hard before she left and was very independent about packing, shopping, getting all the necessary shots and medication, etc. She has her mind set to make the most out of this trip and and the importance her faith has in helping her. She is very aware of what a difference she can make in the world. All this at 15. Whew! Gotta love her!
