My mom will be here in less than 48 hours.

I can't believe it. It's almost too good to be true. And yet, I hope it's not. I hope it's perfectly wonderful and completely real.

I've become a bit anxious about this visit, and I was really relieved during devotions this morning when another girl shared the same feelings about her sister and cousin visiting this weekend. I think that my insecurities about Honduras are a little magnified now that I feel the need to play hostess. It's like I all of a sudden need to know where I am and what I'm doing at all times - and yet that simply isn't the case for us most of the time. I guess this new pressure is partly related to the fact that we're renting a car and I am going to drive here.

I can't believe it.

I have said multiple times that I never wanted to drive here.

However, it wasn't that expensive, and it will provide some much-appreciated independence.

So please be praying that all of the details will fall smoothly into place and that the Lord will continue to provide and protect us so that we can fully enjoy our time together. :)
