WOW! I don't think I'll ever travel overseas. My vacations are limited to the USA! Thanks for sharing the pic :)
ReplyDeleteThat was nice to see a picture of Melissa.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I would love to see those sight she is seeing, I do not want to travel that far from home. I hope she sends you more photos you can share with us.
Thanks, Mom
JEALOUS!!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, we are super jealous! Jere and I would give away a child to go overseas (JT-Kelsey, Blythe, Jackson, Isabel, and Ella-Sophie). When Jere graduated we had an opportunity to go to Germany and teach in a DOD school. Our oldest had a cow, she wanted to graduate from HS with her friends.
Now 15 months later and she says, "why did you listen to me, you never listen to me mom?"
Oh well, God has special and ever changing paths for each of us so who knows where we might be next. :)
Hooray Melissa, thanks for letting us live vicariously through you! Best of luck, stay safe, shalom :)
