We hesitate to tell yo...Love reading your updates! We hesitate to tell you that last night we had our first snowstorm of the season. It is here with a vengance! They said on tv this morning that 42,000 people in Omaha area are without power. There was actually thunder snow last night. Lightening and thunder mixed in with the snowfall. That's unusual. Blowing snow everywhere. Your dad was late for work, which has to be the first time in his life! He can trek through a blizzard with no fear usually. Know that Christmas without your family goes two ways. They miss you as much as you miss them. But, we know that what you are doing for Rwandans is a great gift to the people there. I'm sure that many agree with me when I say how proud we are of you on your journey in Rwanda. Have a Blessed Christmas with your new "family".<br />Gail (and the crew here at your dad's Office.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7496921101495994147.post-42759929499431350852012-12-18T12:51:55.128-06:002012-12-18T12:51:55.128-06:00Aww thanks Claudia!!

I've never been a huge fan of all the Christmas hoopla, but being far from family for the holidays really does put their importance into perspective. Hope it's not too hard for you. Have a happy, sunny Christmas. =]Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02997848080741765915noreply@blogger.com
