Ice...oh how I love ice, and being that we can't drink the water, and ice is made from the water, ice is a no go for the next 6 weeks
My pillows...don't worry, I'm packing my favorite one, but when I'm pregnant I'm usually surrounded by nice, fluffy pillows
My bed...
Dependable internet and electricity...
My girlfriends...I've really been blessed with so many sweet friends that surround me and I'm going to miss them dearly
Dependable warm water
Familiar food
A washing machine...I'm really gonna miss this one:)
_________________________________________________.
But I CANNOT wait for...
The familiar burning smell of Uganda...I know, it may sound weird, and I may regret writing this as I'll be pregnant this time around, but that smell brings back so many sweet memories
The beautiful land...
The crazy animals...I can't wait to show the kids all the monkeys in the trees and the lizards in our bedrooms:)
The unforgettable people of Uganda...
The red clay...it sticks to everything and can't hardly be washed out of your clothes, but there's just something about it that I love
The sweet kids in the orphanage...I can't wait to see their smiling faces
But there is one of those kids, in particular, that I can't wait to wrap my arms around and call "daughter".
There is so much to look forward to!!!

You may miss some things, but it will be worth trading in those things for a season for this moment in your journey. Savor it all; before you know it you'll be back home and your time in Uganda will be a memory. Oh, and don't forget to get that camera out of it's bag! ;) (your fam won't be there taking 1,000,000 pictures!!)
We will be missing you too!!
So excited for you, Tasha!! Can't wait to see pics of you all with her!
Looking forward to all God has for you! Just look at her, looking at you....
PRECIOUS
