Pre-Flight Jitters

In just over 24 hours the hubs and I will be

departing on our long-awaited trip Stateside. 

Three take-offs and landings later, 

we will be home. 

I say "home" and I mean it. 

"Home" has become a very fluid word for me 

in the last few years. 

I think all my expat friends will be able to relate. 

Home is where the love is. 

And there is so much love waiting for us in Tennessee. 

I'm not really looking forward to 

saying bye-bye to my Moto-cat tonight

or to the 2 layovers that we have in

store for us tomorrow, 

BUT,

here's what I am looking forward to for our trip: 

*FAMILY! 

*hearing and speaking English everywhere

*TARGET! 

*REAL Thanksgiving food!!! 

*just. relaxing. 

*catching up and sharing laughs

with people I love

*Red Robin

*pumpkin pie

*TARGET!! 

*visiting my very first Hobby Lobby

*autumn in pretty TN

*not working

*people-watching in airports

*my neck pillow

*reading through an exciting new series

and 

*TARGET!!! 

I covet your prayers for the hubs and I as we travel, dear friends. 

Please pray for safety for us and please pray against spiritual attack. 

Pray that John and I would operate  in great love 

towards one another in the midst of the chaos of traveling. 

And please also pray that God would grant us 

wisdom and clarity on how to spend our time and money

during this trip. 

God-willing, my next post will be from the States! 

LOVE!
