John was laughing as he was looking at facebook tonight so I asked him what was so funny. It was this picture! So cute but so funny too.

I'm not sure what Mayleigh was thinking but since (as Kristi says) we are 2 peas in a pod, I could probably guess. She probably was just worn out and needing a nap. Really though how often do we as adults feel like folding our arms across our chest and saying "no more, I've had enough"? That's how I've been feeling the last several weeks. I want to be back in Alaska. I want to feel good. What does God want? I fully believe He wants us in Alaska and that He will get us there very soon. He gave us a new supporting church last week and several churches have scheduled us this winter to present the field. He knows better than we do the amount of support we need and when the time is right for us to move to Dutch Harbor. God knew the healing that needed to take place in our family after the last several difficult years and He is Jehovah Rophe, the God who heals. So, this week, I plan to look to Him one day at a time, and to do everything I can to prepare to leave as soon as He opens a door. I look forward to teaching kids in our sending church tomorrow, going to the pumpkin patch on Friday, trying to sell some of my bread and butter pickles and salsa at the Farmer's Market Saturday morning, and traveling with my sweetheart to a church in Pittsburg Kansas Saturday afternoon. Jonathan is actually going to stay with Grandma Bev Saturday and Sunday night while we travel. He doesn't like to be away from us but he's been "practicing" spending the night with Grandma! I found his Aleut Lullaby CD that we bought out in Dutch Harbor and he does fine at Grandmas as long as he takes it along and listens to it as he goes to sleep.
Hope you all have a super week and that you "keep on keepin on".
