We've been in Colorado for the past week, attending a pre-field orientation near Colorado Springs. We have our weekends free from the program, so we took off right after the afternoon session on Friday and headed south to Canon City. Caleb's Grandma Morrie has lived in Canon City since she and Grandpa Bob retired nearly 20 years ago. It was a sweet visit with Grandma Morrie, especially at this time in our journey when we're about to leave for the home that she left so many years ago. Caleb spent hours looking through old pictures and reading some of Grandma's great books on Ethiopia and the OMO. He can't get enough of things like that!
The stomach flu hit Elsa on Saturday night, so we were up a lot of the night with her, you can pray that it doesn't get passed on to Ezra or to us.
We are headed into week two of our three week orientation here. It has been great so far, the kids are doing pretty well in their classes while Caleb and I attend the sessions. We have met a lot of great people and the sessions are really good, so we are feeling like this is time well-spent.
