I want to go hold children and help in whatever way I can....
I want to go to Africa. I want to go to Africa and hold children and help in whatever way I can. Yes, I have 5 children. I am a parent and foster parent. And I get a lot of practice holding and helping children. But, Africa has been in my heart for years. And no matter how impracticle it may seem, I have it in my heart to go. My husband is too sweet. "If you want to go, go ahead, we just need to work out the details." Coming from a man who will be left at home with 5 children, that means a lot. But, he has always been a hands on Dad. For which I am so grateful. Now on to the details.......$$$, childcare, getting over the feeling that I am abandoning my family(for a few days), and not being able to be here for them. I am just sure it will be so hard for them to make it without me for 2 weeks. So God, what is the perfect plan???? I think Id like the "handwriting on the wall" type response. At least, I must provide God with some comic relief on many days. In the least, I know He loves me and has the perfect plan ahead. All I need are the directions for one step at a time.
