Leaving on an airplane...

While this blog was originally created to hide my musings on politics and how I would do it better, I feel the need to share a little something different right now. Today marks the first post I've actually written even though I created this blog over a year ago. Ironically, right before I left for Uganda last June. And, today is the day I leave for Uganda this year. My heart already feels so soft that it may melt before I get there.

I am truly blessed by all the people I have in my life. I have never felt so humbled, loved and supported. Thank you. I hope you enjoy these next couple weeks as much as I do. If my heart was only in one place it would definitely be Africa. I know some may not understand, but those that do know that there are few words that can describe it. With three hours before my flight I think I should get some sleep, but while you're reading this please check out what is happening in Kenya and pray for those children!
