  1. Katie! Can you believe I figured out how to post a comment? Me neither! Well, nine hours to go . . . and all those shopping trips for dorky blouses, converters, drip-dry underwear are behind us! How I enjoyed learning how to shrink-wrap Q-tips, among other things, with you. Ah, for the preparation. The best prep was going to your church today. Dad & I really enjoyed it, and will keep the message about patience -- James 5:7-11 -- close to our hearts. We are happy for you and your call to make a difference in this world. Praying for you each step of the way . . . XO Mom

  2. haha I am dying at the 'shrink-wrapping q-tips' comment from Mrs. P! I can totally picture this going down in the Petersen household. Maybe Mr. P in the background explaining the best positioning or an Indian trick. Honestly, I should probably start thinking about that myself...
    I am excited to follow your stories and adventures as you discover a new culture, new people, and a new path. I know you are going to rock out. The people in your village are very privileged to have such a bright and caring person like you--tell them I will come straight there and give them an evil eye and mess things up if they think otherwise :)
    ok before I get on a tangent of threats...Just wanted to let you know i'm here rooting you on. Love you, Kamper ps- don't forget about the walking stick...seriously. no, for real. You should have one by the time you read this.

  3. Haha, the walking stick or the ninja stars... I'm guessing you didn't get those on the plane! Ah- I miss you already SO much, but can't wait to start hearing updates of the wonderful adventure. Thinking of you Katie!
