We were not too hungry today after we ate our big breakfast, so we stopped by McD’s for a quick bite. I think it might actually be better here since they are not trying to make everything low fat :)
After eating, we walked through the underground mall and then walked through Independence Square.
We are now back at the apartment and trying to stay awake (so we are not up in the middle of the night again) and trying not to worry too much about our appointment (11am tomorrow).
Sharon here:
Where do I start, there is no place like home! We have mostly been hanging around the apartment today, resting, not sleeping. It seems so late here, but it is not 6p.m. yet. Thank you so much for commenting, that has really lifted my spirits. It is so comforting to know that we are missed and especially that so many are praying for us.
We were able to talk to the girls this morning. They were so excited to have a snow day. I really hate that I missed playing outside with them and sledding, what fun that would have been. I am sure they are having a great time though.
I picked up some cards from the Christian Book Store months ago and happened to bring them with me (you know the little ones that are great for bookmarks) I thought they were very fitting and I would like to share them:
1st card says:
Don’t worry about tomorrow…
God is already there! (here is the verse)
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11
2nd cards says:
All your tomorrows are in God’s hands.
He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion. Phillipians 1:6
Can’t wait to see what tomorrow holds for us. We love and miss you guys at home more than words can express.
Until tomorrow…

Jason and Sharon,

I pray you're resting well and will wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and ready for your "big day." Sharon, I'm glad the food hasn't been an issue for you. I know you were nervous about that. At least you know you can always go to McD's. We're anxiously awaiting your update tomorrow. Miss y'all!
Ahhh, the comforts of home. Mickey D's can always give you a warm and fuzzy feeling inside:) The girls just left and we had fun with them today. I took some pictures so you can see them in the snow. We built a snowman, did some sledding, and basically froze our tushies off. Morgan went to Becca's and Emma and Madeline played with us. Everyone is doing great and missing you tons. Praying, loving, and waiting. God is good!

Know that I'm praying for you guys and your big day tomorrow.
When you get a chance, read through Philippians 4:4-9. In the meantime, may the God of ALL peace cover your hearts, minds, and emotions in Jesus.

Hi Guys! I love Ukrainian food (now do you understand why I told you my missionary team gained weight on our trip?) but there's just something about a cheeseburger! You guys are constantly on our hearts and minds. Let's just say that you are covered in prayers! Love you both!

Good morning! I saw your girls this morning and they were smiling as they got on the bus. I talked to your mom and she said things are going really well and everyone is doing fine. I pray things are going well.
