He's on his way

Monday November 11, 2019

Jake checked out of the MTC at 4:45am.  He is on his way to Atlanta and then Lima,Peru!

I'm afraid this is going to be another emotional day for me.  I didn't sleep well last night thinking about Jake leaving today for Peru...  

  • Will he make all the bus/trains transfers? 
  • Will he know what to do when he gets to the airport?  
  • Will he eat when he gets to the airport like I told him so he won't get a headache?  
  • Will he make his connecting flight? 
  • Did he pack everything?  
  • What did he forget?  
  • When will I know he made it?
  • Is he ready?  I'm not ready!  
  • The list goes on and on...

I am so thankful for the tender mercies all around us.  The first thing I saw this morning was a picture - Meilanie ran into Jake this morning at the bus stop as he left the MTC.  This is exactly what I needed.  As always, Jake is smiling and ready to conquer whatever comes his way.  I'm sure he wasn't thinking about anything I was worrying about.
