Arrival

I'm so excited to say that we picked up our exchange student on Saturday from the airport!  She is such a sweet girl, and we really think she's going to fit in with us just perfectly.  I think I am going to call her "Sweetie" on the blog, because it describes her perfectly.  We are excited to share each other's cultures (and languages!) and I know that He is going to do big things this year.  It is all in His hands!  She starts school this coming Monday, so we have been running around like crazy fools to make sure we get everything taken care of before her big day.  Lots of shopping, many "firsts," several very funny miscommunications, a surprise trip to the eye doctor, and a visit to school to pick classes.  Yes, it's been an exciting and very packed few days!
