Right Left Whatever

Vacation

I'm going to take a vacation from the blog this week so I can dedicate time to other activities, the most important of which is our anniversary on Wednesday, followed by a weekend getaway in Long Island and a wedding on Sunday.

Going back a couple of posts, its relevant that I said we we told we might be going to China in January. We just got a packet in the mail from La Vida, telling us what to do to get ready, including what to pack for our trip. No commitment on a trip date, but testimony from others is telling us to get ready to go over there sooner than my original target of Mothers'-to-Fathers' Day 2004. We may have our daughter or son home by Valentine's Day. I'm going to have to put pictures on this website by then.

We also just found out this morning that our church is about to split its adult Sunday School class in two because it's getting too big for its classroom. The new class will be dedicated to parenting, and the teachers are another couple who adopted a daughter from China, five years ahead of us. This looks just like what we were asking prayer for, so let me close this post with this Word of praise:

Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous!
For praise from the upright is beautiful.

Praise the LORD with the harp;
Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings.

Sing to Him a new song;
Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

For the word of the LORD is right,
And all His work is done in truth.

He loves righteousness and justice;
The earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
Psalm 33:1-5 NKJV
