I had a breakthrough.

Last night, I opened my mouth and said exactly what I needed to say.

And people actually listened.

I would have preferred for there to have been less chin-quivering on my part, but all in all, it was a good first attempt.

In other news, this is why my Daddy couldn't fly to Togo on Monday....and why his mission group of 25 people in Malawi can't come home. Please pray that these 25 people, along with the thousands of others stuck wherever they are, can get home to their jobs and families soon.
As my pastor said on Sunday, when has anything in Iceland ever affected the whole world?!
