Vince is on his way. He left our house yesterday but won't arrive in Baghdad until the weekend. The good news is that the traveling will be so exhausting he won't suffer from jet lag. When he finally gets a solid night's sleep he'll be adjusted.
The photo is of our last moments. Notice Banjo the lion peeking out from the backpack. Banjo will report back to the young ones on Daddy's travels. Vince said that while traveling yesterday he received two comments repeatedly: "Thanks for serving our country," and "I like the lion!"

Those of us at home are beginning to adjust. We have our sad moments (especially the females in the house ;-) but are getting into a routine and plan on staying busy.
Vince's job changed and as a result he may not be in a settled location for the first 6 weeks. Hopefully he will have a chance to update the blog with details but if not I will pass on what I know when I hear from him. The blog will be much more interesting when we finally have details to share.
Thanks for all your prayers and concern. Betsy for Vince

The lion is awesome, sir!
This is a passage from Genesis when Jacob gave his sons blessings with a MRV translation:
Genesis 49:8,9
"Vince, your commanding officers will praise you; your hand will be on the neck of your enemies; your subordinates will bow down to you. You are a lion's cub, O Vince; you return from the prey,...like a lion you crouch and lie down, like a lioness~who dares to rouse you?
Keep the faith

Becca is concerned for the safety of Banjo. Please don't lose him.
