My 8 year old (well she will be 8 on Saturday), Skyler and I are headed to Zambia this week. We have a team there that we will be visiting.I am delighted to hook up with the orphanage work that is happening there, I am looking forward to seeing the team in action and I am elated that Skyler is able to accompany me. However, I am less excited about sleeping in a tent and enduring dubious bathroom/bathing facilities.
I do have a friend that lives in Lusaka, in a house with running water, so if the going gets tough I will get going over there. Of course that is only if Skyler can’t hack it….ha!
Have a great week my blog friends! Will give you a full report of my amazing camping/roughing it abilities when I return. (please pray for me..hee!)

Somehow I missed your last couple of posts . . . you totally crack me up!
Hello to Marci. What a blessing!
Hope you have a great trip . . . and that Skyler can hack it! : )
A whole week! We'll miss you. You're so cool though... you're flying to Zambia for the week. Who else gets to do that... and what 8yr old gets to say that's how they spent their birthday???
Have a great trip and take plenty of pictures for all us bloggers out here!
Happy Birthday to Skyler! And you two have fun roughing it! :)
Happy 8th to Skylar! Have fun roughing it! :)
I will be praying for you Michelle and also for Skyler! Give those precious children in the orphanage hugs from us all!
I look forward to hearing all about the trip and seeing pictures of your experience.

I've been following your site for a bit and have enjoyed extending my own geographical barriers by appreciating your day to day life. Thanks for sharing and hope the trip goes well!
You and Skyler will have an amazing time, I can just sense it.
Safe journeys.
That's so cool. Zambia! Wow, how I'd love to be there sleeping in a tent. Have a great time and I look forward to all the pictures you'll share on your site upon your return.

Wow- what an amazing opportunity! Skyler and my daughter, Madison, are so close in age- I would love her to have an opportunity like that someday. Can't wait to see pics and hear all about it! Hope you have a great time.
