I have been teasing all week with where Mr. Fish is and what he is doing and tonight, the big reveal. He went to New Orleans! Our church mission group started talking about going this week back in August and he asked me if I would be ok if he went, he said he felt called. Who am I to stand in the way of a calling? I said absolutely and he was going!
He left Monday morning, very early. Our house is not the same without him and while we all know he is doing important work, we sure miss him. Our family doesn't function well without Daddy.
He is staying in an old orphanage without windows, tv, not even a radio. He is taking lots of pictures which I will be happy to share as soon as I can. He is working hard and trying to take in the enormity of the situation. He said it was a real slap in the face.
The week started a little rough when V vomited and our dryer quit working and then I broke the wheel off of A's stroller and my favorite shoes ripped but in the end God is GOOD and it will all work out!
I got this text message from him early tonight:
Leavin' for dwtn at 5:45 Dinner at 8:30 Ball drop at 12:00 Bein' with my family-priceless! Love u guys!
We will just pray that God brings him home safely to us when he is done there and that everyone will have a place to live someday soon.
