The adventure begins.........I am getting excited once again.  I can't believe we are actually leaving on Wednesday.  I am beyond curious at how all of us will adjust. 

I pray that Dan will thrive and shine while working in Paris.  I pray he has energy,  stamina and a postive attitude.  I pray the kids enjoy school and the differences that await them.  I pray that I will be able to create a peaceful home thousands of miles away from  Texas.  A place where all of them find rest and rejuvenation.  I pray that  I will find friendship early on and that I will embrace the french culture.  I pray that I will take the time to listen to what God wants for me this year and the coming years.   I want this to be a year of reflection and a year of growth. 

I think what I want the most from this experience is an even closer relationship with my family.  I want us to be each others cheerleader.  I want us to make memories that the kids will hold on to for the rest of there lives.
