We are leaving as soon as I get off this thing and get everyone into their carseats in the van. David has to work a big funeral tomorrow and has been put on stand by as a North American Mission Board Chaplain, so he is staying here until the mandatory evacuation that is being announced for noon tomorrow. I will be driving with the four littles to my aunt's house in Texas, my mom is already headed that way in her car, and my oldest is into Day Four of Air Force Boot Camp (he missed all the fun of boarding up the house)! When he is forced to leave, David will drive to Brandon, MS and stay with his parents. We are torn--praying that the storm go elsewhere and leave our house alone essentially means that we are praying that it hit someone else's house, no? Thy Will be done, Lord...
Thanks for praying for us,
Jennifer
