S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y HEY!

So it is now Sunday and we are getting ready to go to church. Yesterday was a little rough. We went to a market in the afternoon to purchase some souveniers and wares. I got a lovely Ghana soccer jersey and Amanda picked up a nicely hand carved nativity set. From there it went down hill. Amanda proceeded to get sick for the rest of the evening. I/We were worried that it might be another kidney infection, but at this point we are thinking it is just some bad food, bad water, heat or a combination of it all. She had some bad cramping and pains. Needless to say we will be eating only 100% guaranteed safe products from here on out. That means a very limited diet of bananas, bread, and bananas. As far as the schedule goes it all depends on Monday. We will se the American Consular office and see if they will issue us a visa by Tuesday. If that happens we are booked on a flight for Wednesday. If this does not happen it will be difficult to get home before Christmas. The flights closer to and on the weekend are quite full. The consular office "normally" issues visas on Fridays. We are going to beg, plead, and ask for an exception which have been made before so it is not impossible. Please pray that they will at least hear our request. We have all of the papers and things that they need so it should be possible. It is once again hot today. We have been bitten by mosquitoes this week and are trusting that God is using the malaria pills that we are taking to keep us safe from that. The kids are doing quite well and are anxious to go home. The only thing we are concerned about is that neither of them like to sit in the car and both of them had a fit when we put the seatbelts on them. Of course they must wear the belts in the plane and stay seated. Another prayer request for the painfully long flight(s). All in all we are in fairly good spirits (I might not have said so last night). We are trusting in God's timing but asking him to make Wednesday his timing. Thanks for reading. We hope to have some news on Monday.
