not mom yet

i have had a crazy few months preparing for our son to arrive. casey and i have both been working as much as we could knowing that when david arrives all of that changes. today was not unusual in the busy/crazy schedule but i did have a few minutes to come check on casey [home from work this week] and grab a different snack [didn't want the one i had grabbed at 5:45 am]. shortly after arriving him casey informed me that, "well, he has tonsillitis." i stared at him. my mind was trying to determine the "he" in that statement. i first thought of his brother kyle but we had just seen him last night and was fine so i ruled him out. nothing, absolutely nothing was coming to me so i had to ask, who? casey gave me the stare followed by, "really? our son in ethiopia, who else would i be talking about?"

needless to say i felt a little silly for not even considering that he might be talking about our son. so be in prayer for our little guy - he will be taking medicine for the next few weeks and will hopefully be feeling better when we arrive.

I'll be praying for little David's return to health. My husband and I were wondering if you could take a care package to our son. We are an AWAA family. My email is
