We can't wait to meet your daughter. Maybe we should do a ASL class at church so we can all communicate with her.

Looks like your plane took off on time, and the next is on schedule. TV news doesn't make east coast weather look good, but our God has it all arranged. May He bless you with tender travel mercies. Be sure to write about the people and places you see! love and prayers

Seriously, we're praying for you all. Saturday night here;Sunday morning there. Blessings!
