The day has come! Pinch me....I must be dreaming!

Today is D-Day...the day of our departure! We will be flying from Calgary to Frankfurt this evening.

We have all expressed a profound wonder as this day has approached...can it be real?!! But it is. We said goodbye to our home over a week ago, and have been living out of suitcases at Cathy's brother Ed's place.

Yesterday we said goodbye to the cats (again, they have been enjoying their new home since before Christmas already). We also said goodbye to many family & friends, first at SCCC in the morning, then as we celebrated Micayla's birthday with friends & family in the evening. Words cannot describe how blessed we have been by the outpouring of love, support, & prayer that we have received in these last few days & weeks. And we've experienced more "coincidences" than can be explained by any other way than God's miraculous grace. But I better write about those later...still lots to do before we go!
