In response to Oz's comment on my Abandonment post.....

Yes, I have this fear that I am abandoning them just like their family and everyone else, and in the end, it would be better for me to not go at all.

Yet, Michelle, Susie, and I have all been talking, and we don't want it to be this way. So, we are going to try to go down there one Saturday a month to spend the day with the kids so they know that we do care for them, and that we are not abandoning them.

Michelle and I were talking on Sunday, and we both feel like God may be helping us feel this way as part of Him calling us to do this work on a more permanent basis. Honestly, it kind of scares me in some ways, but in others, it's really exciting and I know I would never be happier.
