In 1 month and 16 days I will be driving with my family to Calgary to board the first of my planes to Africa. I am excited, nervous, happy, sad and unsure all at once right now. I know that once I get settled and in a routine, the 3 months will FLY by and I won't want to come home - especially when I realize I will have to leave all my babies behind. I guess it is just more of the fear of the unknown right now. The longest I have ever been away from my parents is like, 3 weeks... and even then, we talked at least every other day. Will I be able to keep contact with everyone? Will I be so completely out of the loop when I come home? I guess all I can do is jump in with both feet and see what happens. Dad already has my flights/landing times booked into his phone so he will know exactly when I get off the plane in London and when I board in Entebbe. It's a big step for all of us and above all,
I am SO excited to see where my adventures take me.
