safe & sound

Just wanted to let everyone know, I got an email from Ben last night. He made it to East Timor and is all settled in his hotel. Apparently the hotels don't have phones. Hmmm...so he is going to buy a local cell phone. So until then I don't know much. But I know he made it. Phew.

** Funny story, Ben was reading some travel blogs about East Timor and one of the people who were writing said that they had been their twice. The second time was so much better because they now offered such amenities as toilet paper and chocolate. Doesn't that sound like a place you want to be?!

These pictures are great and the journaling makes me feel like I'm there with you. Give the children hugs and kisses. I know you miss Ben, but you are SO strong:)
I cannot believe how grown-up Harmony looks. Where does time go???

So, what did they do for toilet paper before? Gross....
And what kind of place doesn't have chocolate?!

Seriously, I am so glad he made it there okay and I pray these next few weeks go by quickly for you!!
