Remember my daughter Alisha? She went to Australia as a summer missionary for one month. Well, she is coming home this evening at 10:45 p.m.! Actually, that's when she will be at the St. Louis airport.
She has to go back to CEF (Child Evangelism Fellowship) for 4 days for de-briefing. Then, she can actually come home.
But, I'm excited because we are going to meet her at the airport and at least say "hi" to her! Yea! :)

Debi - how wonderful for all of you. Too bad they can't wait a couple of days for the debrief. I am sure Alisha has plenty of wonderful memories of this adventure. Hopefully she has plenty of pictures to share also.
Mike - Oh, I know she does...I believe she took over 300, but her 2 teammates took a total of 1600! :)
Debi,
Glad you are getting your daughter back and I know you are so proud of her!
Debi, nice ThemThem to Alisha, how awesome that she took the time to travel so far to provide a wonderful service. It will be some thing she will remember for the rest of her life. You must be very proud of her.

Wow, that month went by fast..(for me at least, I am sure it was MUCH longer for you!)
A 4 day debriefing??? Sounds like she went to the moon and it is a NASA requirement! Let her come home already!!!!
Mike - Yes, we really are... and so excited! :)
Duane - She really loved it. She was excited to come home, but so sad to leave. :)
Robert - LOL! It does seem like a long time, but I thought that was just me... :)
Debi, I can believe that, but as a Mom, so nice to have her home safe I'm sure.
Well there is a very happy mom. I know you cant wait to give that hug you've been saving for her.
Debi, great news! You must be so proud. Enjoy your reunion with your wonderful daughter.
Robert - Is it obvious? :)
Sharon - Thank you for you kind words! :)
Jim - We're excited... Thanks for stopping by! :)
Good for her going half way around the world to teach children about God. And she looks so young!
How wonderful it must be to have her back. I know you are tremendously proud of her!
I am so glad she is home. I am sure you are excited to see your daughter again.
Nicholas - We are so glad that she is home and safe. She has many stories to tell. I hope to share them later... :)
