Mom & Dad leave tonight

It has been a great 12 days with them...tonight, in just a few hours, Mom
and Dad will conclude their visit to Benin. I just returned from the
airport where they will start boarding any minute. Our last few days have
been wonderful. Time on the beach, in the pool, souvenir shopping, good
eating, and lots of laughter and tears. I am so thankful Mom and Dad
sacrificed and made that long journey. What a blessing!! They now can
testify and tell all about Benin! All the kids will miss them so very
much...Mom and Dad poured themselves into all the kids in very unique ways.
As Kelly noted, they are both such gifted teachers, so the kids were always
learning something new. We'll try and post some more pictures in a day or
two. Pray for their safe flight over the next 24 hours.

We will return to Aplahoue tomorrow where we will spend the remaining few
days with the Prices before their departure on Monday (9/12). They will
vacation some in the UK before arriving in Fort Worth in early October. We
will be sad to see them go as well.
