Coming Home.....

Coming home from the mission field is always a bittersweet time...a time of leaving friends and extended family in another country...yet missing my family at home. Another goodbye to the place that steals my heart and a hello to my sweet babies! It is a hard but rewarding time given by God to refresh my soul and remind me that He is in charge.

When I recently came home from Guatemala, God gave me a sweet reunion at the airport. These are a few pictures of the kids welcoming me home. They still seem just as shocked that I (or JT) return from another country. I would like to say that this is unusual, but the fact is that they do this EVERY morning when they see us in the kitchen...total surprise that we are still here. God's grace....
