Day 1421. We did not set an alarm this morning, and as the kids had gone to bed late, I was hoping they'd sleep longer. At 7 am Paul called because of an urgent matter and woke us all up. I had only gone to bed at 3 am and was extremely tired. We went downstairs for breakfast, then back upstairs. I got them all dressed and then left to go downstairs for my 9 am student.

Day 1420. My alarm was set for 7 am, but Sammy was the first one up at 6:45 already. We went downstairs to have breakfast, then dressed them and left the house at 8:15 to drive to church. It was raining a little bit and had rained all night. It was a 20-minute drive to church, where we were allowed to park in the handicapped section and were welcomed by the new missions director I'd already communicated with online.

Day 1419. Emmy had slept between me and Randy all night as he'd been scared to fall off the bed. At 7:30 my alarm woke us up. I was very tired. We got up, and I closed up all the suitcases. Then we headed to breakfast. It was our first hotel stay since coming to the house, and therefore our first hotel breakfast. The kids had some pastries but not much else.
