Well, that was an adventure….

I’m sitting in Nairobi, hoping the fatigue I feel will overcome the adrenaline and allow me to fall asleep tonight.  Not sure it can though because from the moment I realized my flight from Houston was delayed, adrenaline stepped in, and I’ve been running on it ever since.

And, I do mean running.

In fact, in all my travels, and there have been a few, I ran to more gates in the past 24 hours than in all the rest of my life, combined.  I made it to the one in London, but apparently, my luggage did not.

That’s a first for me, too.

Thank goodness there are clothes in my carry-on.

It’s funny, actually.  I did make it to the gate in Newark, but I wasn’t allowed to board because my luggage had not arrived.  I’m thinking no one checked on that when I boarded the alternate flight to London or when I ran to the gate once I got there.  Oh well.

Just like I know God was in control of the details all day yesterday, rerouting my flight to a city I’ve always wanted to see (an hour in an airport might not offer much of a view, but I have finally “been” to London) to putting me on a partially full flight that allowed a whole lot more comfort on a nine hour flight, I know that he also knows exactly where my bags are and will bring them to me at the proper time.

He also knew what I suspected:  one of my babies is getting sick.  Pray for her, will you?  Pray for her daddy, too.  And, all my little ones.  I will always feel a part of me is at home here in Nairobi, but my husband and my kids are my home in a way no city ever will be.  I miss them….and I appreciate your prayers.
