Leaving Nash

Getting ready to leave. Our flight is delayed already. Oh well, I think that is just prep for Ethiopian time. You get there when you get there. No rush. No spiraling around a clock. We all need some of that in our lives.Met a couple of Ethiopian friends of Chris at the airport. They are so excited we are going to their home country. If you dont know much about the people of Ethiopia, they are SO loving,SO kind, SO giving, SO,grateful. Before we even made it to the gate, they were setting up arrangements with family in ET to greet us at the,airport and take us to a coffee ceremony and bless us with traditional meal if we would like. We have almost half dozen phone numbers and names to contact if we have any needs. Such a blessing. They are so excited for us. We are excited too. The Lord has seen fit to mend our hearts with this country, this culture, this people for a lifetime. Our family will forever be part Ethiopian. What an honor.Still at the airport.....and we wait. ..
