Saying goodbye is one of things we missionaries have to get used to. People come and go in our lives, but it's wonderful to have the memories of the people who we come into contact with every single day. Laura and Sophie came to the guest house in early December and they were finally given the proper paperwork to take Sophie to the USA. We spent a lot of time getting to know Laura and Sophie, and we will miss them here in Zambia. But we know the Lord wanted them to go home. It has really been an adventure for Laura as she came to Zambia back in August with hopes to adopt Sophie. After many trials and struggles with the government, she was successful in her process and we are excited for Sophie to grow up in a loving home rather than an orphanage. We transported them to the airport on Tuesday, January 22. Sophie was asleep during the departure phase, so we said our goodbyes and prayed they would make it home safely. Don't forget Zambia - Sophia Grace!
