Travel Approval!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rick and I took the day off work to attend his grandmother's funeral today. She would have been 85 in November, so she had many wonderful days on this earth! The funeral was beautiful and of course many tears were shed. It was amazing to think about the family this woman has created... 6 children, 14 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren. All of these people are here because of her and her husband. And the family will continue to grow. One of Rick's Aunts said to me, "It is funny how God works with his timing.... thank goodness you guys aren't in China and Colleen hasn't gone into labor yet..... we can only handle one thing at a time." Colleen is Rick's sister, and she is due on Tuesday. So, we said good-bye to Grandma today. Colleen went to the doctor after the funeral... her baby is coming on Tuesday. While we were at lunch after the funeral, I get the most wonderful phone call saying that we have our TA! So, we grieve the loss of a wonderful woman, we celebrate the life of baby girl Ginter coming into the family.... and then we celebrate Emma Grace coming home to her forever family. God really does have a plan. We are waiting on our flight information. I CAN'T WAIT to find out when I will have this little girl in my arms!!!!!!
