All is Well.

Our things have been taken away.   Everything packed (including Peter and Robyn's wedding gifts, two file boxes of old piano music and 2 bags of clothes that were set aside for Deseret Industries. nice.  Had to open quite a few packed boxes to retrieve those!) and headed to London. 

I have been dealing with such mixed emotions.  We are so delighted to have the opportunity to serve and so sad to only have 4 days with Zachary as he returns from his mission.  I am nervous about my abilities and so confident in David's.  I wonder if this roller coaster of feelings will continue until we get on that plane? Probably.
  
I keep thinking about the women who closed their doors in Nauvoo and, with determination,turned their faces toward Zion.  Were they nervous? Fearful? Excited? Heartbroken? Probably, but turn they did. With faith.  Faith that they would be watched over, faith that the Lord was in charge.

  Faith that all would be well.

tick...tock....

Tomorrow the movers come.  I have to figure out what I can wear for the next 7 weeks that will fit into 2 suitcases.. missionary clothes and everyday stuff that I can wear while we are still here.  Can I just say...my brain hurts.  I also have to download photos and talks off of the computer because that is also going.  I see an all-nighter in my future.
