RE: Hi!

Please don't say how many days are left, okay? We need to keep that like it's a secret. Just say that it will be soon, okay? Once I'm out of this country AND out of the next country I'll be in, then we can talk about how many days - but by then it will be how many hours! :o)

I would love to see the wildflowers you colored. I bet they are beautiful.

Today will be another very busy day for me...but I get to give work to my replacement, so it'll be a good day. I hope to have almost everything turned over by the end of hte day today. Then I can concentrate on some personal things, like packing my bags, and getting my checklist done (we have a checklist that needs to be done before we can leave, and I haven't even started mine!).

Let me get to work, Sweetie. Btw, today for you - 13 July - is Papa's birthday. You should probably call to say happy birthday, if you like. He turns 50!!!

Love,
Mommy
