Coming Home

Yes, we are finally coming home and I cannot wait....I have got the worst homesickness I have ever had in my life....we spent all day in Rome yesterday and I am waiting to get home before I post anymore pictures, it is too costly to do it here....we took around 500 and I accidentally erased the ones that Chris took with his camera....I was sick about it, but I had taken alot of the same things and there were just a few more that he took that I didn't....but you can have Rome, Venice, Rimini, Florence.....I want the good ole USA....I cannot wait to get home....Chris and I have both realized how blessed we are to live in our country.....if we didn't get anything else out of this trip, it is that for sure and we are so ready to leave.....we already have our bags packed and we are waiting to get on the train to take us to the airport in Bologna....we are willing to stay at the airport for 6 hours just to feel closer to home....we are leaving at 2:30 am just to get the last train out of here.....we are walking almost a quarter mile to the train station and getting on the train....please pray that our train is on Bin 1, that way, we don't have to go far with our luggage and we will be okay....then catch a huge cab to the airport and we pray that the electricity is on this time.....we have realized that God has protected us so much.....we were in Rome yesterday when at the train station, a man set beside me wanting my purse, I realized it and then so did Chris....I got up and he came over wanting money, he had a huge bottle of beer and Chris told him that we couldn't help him, he first had to help himself.....we noticed that he was out there working with another man doing the same thing, they stayed together, one better dressed than the other and God put a hedge of protection around us and kept us safe....I had been watching the two of them way before that.....I have prayed that God would keep us alert even as tired as we are and He has.....and boy have we seen it.....I cannot wait to get back and tell you all about it.....there were so many instances where He kept us safe.....I Praise His Name and I Love Him even more and our country too.....this will be the last time that you will hear from me until late Sunday evening or Monday, as we will be in transit.....I love and miss you all.
