4 weeks in Ghana. I was doing fine. The longer I was there the more I missed home and my family and friends, but the more l learned to love Ghana.
So I am home now, less than 24 hours. I woke up twice last night to find myself attempting to navigate my room as if I were still at the guest house in Ghana. I finally had to turn on the light to realize I was in my own bedroom.
As the kids were getting dresses this morning, I did note that two were missing. It does seem as thought the girls should be here now. I've spent so much time with them in the last weeks, it just seems that something is missing for now.
We are feeling hopeful and confident that the girls will be home by the end of July.
They are precious young girls and I am looking forward to us all under one roof!
I am delerious and sleepy today. I may need to rest.
I want to share more about my trip and about the girls, and I will do that as soon as I can.
Also, to those who are interested, we will be taking more donations to Ghana on the next trip: if you have any interest in helping us gather new or gently used Items please let me know.

Oh girl! Been there, done that! The first night home I always wake up and have no clue where I'm at. Second night too, sometimes. It just won't feel right until your girls are home. They are super real now. I hope you can recover from the jet lag quickly. But for the first 5 days or so watch yourself to make sure you aren't putting milk in the pantry or your car keys in the freezer!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh how hard ... to be with the girls for a month, and not be able to bring them home. So sorry!
