Making Progress

What does progress look like? 

It means the items for the crate are all boxed and itemized ready to be packed. 

It means the girls clothes have all been sorted and packed for Nampa, and Kampala.
It means most drawers and cupboards are empty of all that we are taking.

It means most paper work is in order.  I say most, because it seems to be a never ending trail. 

With only 4 days until we leave for Nampa, Idaho and training at the MAF US headquarters, this progress feels like a huge milestone.  The goal, is to be all packed by Friday night, so we can enjoy the weekend with family and friends before heading out.  It may be a little ambitious since we are still sleeping in beds with sheets and blankets that need to be packed in the Kampala suitcases but if we can get most of the suitcases packed with the right weight, it would be good progress.

Even with the good progress, the "To Do" list still seems long :-)  But we will get done, and we will depart. 

Thanks for your prayers and to the many who have helped us with packing, cleaning, meals, taking the kids out and everything in between.  We are grateful for your support.

Now on to filling those suitcases.
