Leaving for Home

We have had an incredible visit here in the States and thank everyone who made it so special. God has been so gracious and loving to us. We leave today out of LAX at 5pm. We have a 8 hour lay over in London and then fly to Nairobi. We just learned it was 90 degrees in Nairobi yesterday. Oh boy here goes the adventure. For those of you that do not know, we are expecting our second child. :) Not sure when baby is due but we are definitely pregnant.

Thank you again for all your prayers. Please also pray for Sunday who has malaria again and for the families who are staying in our home. It will be such a blessing to be home but lots of adjustment again.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him all creatures here below, Praise Him above the heavenly host, praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

God bless you all!

The Lord is Good!

Peg's dad is recovering well and we have seen the hand of the Lord on us in a beautiful way. We are now spending time with family and will get to spend more time with Matt's parents this weekend. We have begun our packing and though we are grateful that we don't have 15 bags like last time, we are once again figuring out how to take all our Christmas gifts and American goodies back. What a fun dilema! We are praying for our hearts and emotions to be ready on Tues. :)

Peg's Dad

Praise the Lord, today went extremely well! Our Lord is so good and gracious. Though the surgery was more complicated than expected it went extremely well and the doctor was very pleased with the overall surgery! My mom, sister Kris and niece Jennifer got to spend the day together which was really special. We even had lunch together and did a trip down memory lane as we toured around San Bernardino and looked at old homes that had been lived in and places our grandparents lived and where several family members went to school. Dad was so happy to see us once they got him moved to his floor and when we walked in he said, "It's about time!" He had been worried that we wouldn't be able to find him. :) Though he was still coming out of the anesthesia, he spoke to us clearly and enjoyed having us nearby as he slept on and off. As predicted the pain is intense so he has a bit of a journey ahead of him for recovery but he is such a trooper and we are all so glad the surgery part is over. The Lord really blessed today in so many ways including giving us supernatural strength. Matt had a great day with Kenya Grace making a huge trip to the grocery store and then to a library story hour.
Thank you all who are praying! Please don't stop! God bless you!

Happy New Year!
