on the ‘Journey to Julia’ has begun.  Grandma and Grandpa are staying in Tampa tonight in order to catch a flight to Denver very early in the morning.  We’ll get to spend a couple of – whirlwind – days visiting with them before we head out on Tuesday morning.  The girls were beside themselves at bedtime in eagerness for their arrival tomorrow.

I wish Ellie understood the passage of time better – she wants to know how many more days until….but she doesn’t quite have this concept down.  I am going to set her up with a calendar to help mark the days of our trip.  Hannah loves that sort of thing and will do it with her every day.  I do feel sort of bad, though, Ryan and I get to have Julia more than a whole week sooner than they do.

Please pray for our good health – we all have a little touch of a cold that I would just as well prefer not to have to deal with, especially leaving the girls or traveling without feeling 100%.
