 Yesterday morning, Katherine noticed that the chrysalis was growing darker.


Last night, we could clearly see the wings of the newly formed butterfly inside.


And this morning, before we left, Katherine was delighted to find the butterfly, freshly emerged. In the midst of loading the truck, we marveled as the creature stretched its wings.


We enjoyed a quick chat with Sarah and Benjamin and sang happy birthday to our now twenty-year-old son. Then we were on the road by 7, stopping briefly to pick up a couple of guys who were catching a ride in the boat with us. Our fully laden boat chugged away from the beach by 9, and we crossed a flat sea to walk into our house in time for lunch! Thanks for all of the prayers for our trip, we see God’s hand in every little detail...from each person being ready on time (instead of following “Solomon Time”) to finding that our cargo had recently been delivered from the Rusa to our front door. Transition is always difficult, but we couldn’t have asked for a smoother trip.
