Scott and I got our shots today as part of our preparing for a Summer trip to Thailand.  We plan to leave around June 27 and return before July 17.  It will be a great trip.  Sunday, we visited a church that supports the Missionary that is in Thailand and Scott was able to present to them the great things that God was able to do through the Mission Team that had gone. 
That was a real exciting story in itself.  Another team had planned to go, but due to civil unrest in Thailand that team had backed out of going.  The Missionary had sent out a prayer request and a plea for help.  He said that he knew God had prepared another team to take that teams place.  Scott was one of the ones that answered the Lord’s call to help that Missionary. 
Last year, when Scott went I had a baby that I was nursing, and a toddler that I was potty training. Scott and I both agreed that it was best that I stay behind and take care of our children who still needed me with them. 
This year we have the perfect opportunity to go together.  Our baby is now weaned, and Jonathan is now 3 and potty trained.  My parents had 3 weeks available to watch our children and said that they would love to keep them while we went to Thailand together this Summer. 
We are not trying to force any doors open to our going but so far things have been working out according to God’s will and at His timing.  We thought we would only have 2 weeks to spend with the Missionaries there and the Lord gave us an extra week by moving one of the church camps back a week.
