We are a little over seven hours from take off. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit nervous. I am not nervous about traveling so much because I enjoy that, for the most part. I am more nervous that I am going to forget something that I need for work, or haven't packed enough, or don't have my glasses or contact solution etc.
I got a chance to spend some quality time with the fam today, which was important. The hardest part about making this trip is being away from them. I got to have lunch with them today at one of our favorite pizza places, then I took a nap with Baylor during the Vikings game, played Wii with the girls, and then got to read them books, pray and answer questions from them. Although that time of the day can be stressful...since Kenna doesn't sit still long enough to get two words in most of the time...it is often one of the best parts of my day. Tonight I talked to the girls about how we'd be gone before they woke up and how many days we'd be gone. Carly prayed for safe travels and for us to have a good time in Hawaii and Kenna prayed for grandma not to be alone while grandpa was gone. Then I got hugs and kisses from both girls. Kenna wouldn't let go and Carly whispered, "I love you Daddy" in my ear. That made made my day.
Well better get to bed. I have a long night of laying there thinking about what I am forgetting. I'll keep you posted on what that item is when I figure it out. Probably about Wednesday...
Next post...Honolulu.
