Hello!

This is Melanie. And I just wanted to let everyone know that we have made it to Moscow quite safe although quite tired and exasperated. Abby had a tough time adjusting to the new night time ritual and I think Pam got only a couple of hours of sleep Friday night. After a very long flight, thankfully all of us were able to take a nap Saturday afternoon. We did get some more sleep Saturday night but Pam woke up not feeling very well. We were fortuante to visit a village just outside of Moscow today but as the day went on, Pam has gotten worse. I am posting this to ask for some prayers. We are thinking she has the flue with some bad aches and pains and a stuffy head. I'm pretty sure she was running a fever and had chills as well. Please pray that she makes a fast recovery and that the rest of us can make it home without getting sick or at least before we get sick! The girls are requiring quite a bit of energy for us all and we need all the strength we can get! I know Pam wanted to post tonight but we're making her rest. :) I'm sure you will here all about the fun things going on very soon!

Thanks Melanie for posting and letting us know what is going on. So sorry to hear Pam is not feeling well, not a good situation considering all the responsbility you have. We will pray that God will undertake and help things to get better. Be great when we know you are home safely.

Your concerned Dad

Pam, as we all know, God works in mysterious ways in our lives and maybe He is just letting you know that it's time to give your body a few hours of rest.....you have all been under a tremendous amount of stress over these past few (very long) weeks and that does take a toll on our bodies. Get some rest and listen to your body.......only a couple more days and you will back home in your own bed...ahhhhhhhhh (how sweet those words must sound to all of you right now).
Please take care and safe travels!!
My love you all.....
