Mission: Urban

Today has been crazy…..as are most days, but I still don’t now how it will all end.  We were up this morning and over to my brother and sister-in-laws house to wait for the letter from the Argentine GBC inviting us to AR.  I left to take two of the boys to three doctor appointments.  They are all clear from bronchitis, but are still stuffy and Malachi can’t hear too well.  Zeke was all clear for his chest and then we made our way to the orthopedic doc and his collarbone is all healed.  That is miraculous, really, this kid fell so many times on his shoulder and we were so worried he slowed down the process because it was impossible to keep him calm and still.  So we praise GOD he is out of the brace.  While I was doing all the doctor stuff, Brian got the documents and he and Elijah left to go into DC to the consulate.   We don’t have cell phones, but it has been several hours, so I’m hoping he made it in time before the consulate closed.  We hope to find out if we’ll get the visas Tuesday or Wednesday.   We are supposed to fly out Thursday.  We have so much packing and rearranging to do….the next few days will be a total whirlwind if we do leave Thursday.  Please keep us in your prayers.  It is always emotional to say goodbye and then mixed with the stress of packing and moving…….these next few days will be tough and exhausting to say the least.  Thank you for thinking of us.
