For three weeks I've been following them through Africa... South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, checking off each location as the days passed. Once upon a time, those words were half-way across the world, and now? I feel like I could reach out and touch them.
Thank you, Mom. I am so excited to hear her stories, knowing that even the same stories will feel different this time, now that I have seen some of it for myself. Most of all I want to hear about the elephant nudging their tent in the wee hours of the morning. And the baby wildebeest. And how it felt to be in the midst of a giraffe herd. Yes,
I want to hear it all. And I know she'll be anxious to share it.
And because sharing is nice, I will share a few more pieces of my heart...
Yes, Africa still lives in my heart... and these faces, and the joy I saw in them, are a part of the reason.

Thank you, friend, for sharing with me. Your heart is so big.
yes, look at those faces...and the face of someone who embraced every moment!!! ;-)
Oh, how I love these photos!!!
So glad your mom is such a good sharer....you'll get all the details soon!
Cool. It was such a fabulous thing for your family to be able to experience Africa together. Your mom has truly been bitten by the Africa bug! (My father was also.RIP Daddy.)
