Good bye England - Hello Zimbabwe!

We can't believe that we are leaving the UK. In some senses we have talked about this day for many years but the reality of it has always seemed a long way off! So with sad hearts we leave England. This new chapter that is about to start is before us - we face it with excitement but also a lot of nerves - what are we getting ourselves into? Will our family cope with such a big move? etc. But God - we keep reminding ourselves!!

We have had to say so many good byes and they have been hard! We are so privileged to have so many good friends, who have all some how touched our lives!! We so hope to share Zimbabwe with at least a few of you one day! Thank you to all of you!! We love you!! You have made England our home!

We've been gearing the kids (well Matthew really) for the move, the excitment of seeing his granparents (my folks), he can't wait to go on an aeroplane and do his Postman Pat magazine, which he has been saving for the flight! He has been a little insecure with all our furniture being given away, a temporary home and toys disappearing but we know that once he knows where his new home will be, he will be fine!! Zoe is nearly walking and totally oblivious to it all!! Mark and Matthew camped on the lawn of the house we are staying at last night - a great way to end a fantastic summer in England! We pack the next two nights and leave on Tuesday!!

So the next time I write we will be on the other side of the world!!! Do keep visiting to check what we are up to!

Here is an up to date photo of us four!
