I am on my way

It is so hard to believe that I am really leaving in just a couple of hours. Next time I post I will be around the world. I hope the hardest part is just getting on the plane, because the thought of leaving Jillian for 9 days is harder than what I anticipated. I have left her a toy to open each day so she is starting to like the idea better. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes. Please keep them coming! I have to say I believe I have the best family and friends that anyone could imagine, and I am so grateful to everyone!
