After a long trip we safely arrived in Denver yesterday, March 14th, and made the trek home to Frisco. 1 1/2 hours later we pulled in the driveway to snow and slush. Spring has sprung in Frisco and the girls really enjoyed playing outside today without their noses freezing off! We may try and ski tomorrow just because we can and the snow is melting fast. There is still much unpacking to do on my part, the girls finished today, but that will be there on Saturday as well.
We miss PNG already. Especially the friends we were with. The base in Madang is a great size, not too big, so you really get to be friends with everyone. It felt like home quickly and still remains in our hearts. We look forward to returning as the Lord allows. All the girls complained at one time or another that it was too short of a trip this time. How, in this land of plenty, can a person long for a land that lacks so much? I told a friend in an e-mail today that sometimes it is nice to have needs so God can meet them. If I need something, I go to the store and buy it. In PNG, you may not be able to get what you need because it's not even in the country. But God provides often in ways you would not think of. Little blessings along the way from a very big God.
I'll post more pictures soon. For now, we must get in bed to recover from our jet lag. In our mind, it's in the afternoon but the sun has set here and the clock says otherwise.
Love,
Tracie
