We arrived safely last night around 8pm. What a long day! The day went great. The kids enjoyed the flights and managed them well. After arriving in Montego Bay, we began the long trip up to Knockpatrick. This trip is long and brutal on a good day, and yesterday was not a good day. It was raining, which is good, but that means that you drive slow, the roads are crowded, and the roads are also flooded in many areas. So, our normal 3 hour drive turned into almost a 5 hour ride. I was hurting, tired, and frustrated. But, do you know who can manage a situation like that while remaining as cool as a cucumber. Truitt James Plattner! The little man is patient. We hardly heard him say anything all day and he always keeps a good attitude. I envy his attitude sometimes and we pray that his unique little personality will be used for the Kingdom. Thanks to everyone who said a prayer on our behalf. We are praising the Lord for a good day!

Glad you arrived safe!
We could all learn from such a patient little guy!
Whew! I thought you were going to have a horror story from traveling!
Glad you made it safe and kuddos (sp?) to Truitt for being such a trooper!!
I too am thankful you made it home safe. We so enjoyed our time with you over the past few weeks. Praying for a smooth transition!
Love you,

That picture of Truitt is adorable! Glad you're back safe, and it was great to be with you for a little!
