GLAD you are feeling better! I loved looking at your pics from Africa–Mother went a few years ago and her life was great impacted! The missions work there was an awesome experience for her. She can’t wait to go again.
I, on the other hand…have never EVER boarded an airplane. Nope. Not kidding. My husband has went on several missions trips…my mother and stepdad…but I’ve always held down the homefront and prayed and watched my babies. But you know?….I may have to board a plane. I think I need to “see” and experience what God is doing in foreign lands.
God bless you for your efforts and your awesome heart!
I look FORWARD to meeting you and hearing you at the SheSpeaks Conf.!!

My husband has made five missions trips to Haiti. After the first trip he was so shaken that he literally could not interact with anyone for two solid weeks. Then he, who is completely paper resistant, wrote and wrote and wrote about the trip in a little notebook. But he still couldn’t really talk about the trip until almost 3 months later.

Do men, other than the famous Travis Cottrell, leave comments on this blog? Just curious.

I love how you make fun of the south and the (s) on the end of places like Barnes and Noble, Kroger, and Wal-Mart. For the first year we lived in TN I thought our neighbors were headed out for an entire day because they kept talking about going to visit the “Wal-Marts”. I had no idea why they needed to visit plural Wal-Marts in one day, but who was I to judge?

Just know you are not alone in your post-Ugandan intestinal adventures. It’s common and a little magic pill will help it greatly.

I have decided that I can no longer lurk since I have recently decided that lurkers are creepy! :) I really love your blog and just wanted to identify myself! Thanks for your fun perspective–I’ve really appreciated and been blessed by your thoughts from Uganda.

Disconnected. Hard…but Good. God will use this time in your life. We got back from Ethiopia (with our two newest children) almost three months ago, and I’m still feeling it a bit…yet I know that God is using this time in my life.

I am so enjoying reading all that you and the others are sharing about the trip. Thank you for being willing!
