Jet Lag SUCKS!!

Posted in Ireland by Heather Dodge on 8/13/2009

So I've come to realize that there will be times that words can not express what I'm feeling. This is one of those times. I've never experienced jet lag because well I've never changed time zones. Well let me tell you JET LAG SUCKS!! Here are some pictures to show you just how we were feeling yesterday!

Welcome to the life of a World Racer. It does get a bit easier I promise. But one thing you are going to learn (it seems like you have already started) is that you can sleep just about anywhere at almost any time. Have a blast & usher in the Kingdom!

Hey Pumpkin,

Yes I had to use that one it has been with you a long time. I am sure everyone was exhausted. Just think about those flying from California that would only add to the "JET LAG" you are feeling. God will take of all of you. This is a wonderful Journey you are taking and remember we are all thinking about you often. LOVE Mom.

That is the most attractive picture of me...I'm sure we will have a year of lots of sleeping pictures. I love it though. Gotta love jet lag!

Hi sweetie,

YES, jet lag does suck, but I was able to be with you to see you beautiful, bright eyed and bushy tailed again. YOU ARE a NEW CREATION!!!

I love you Heather!!! Have fun and know that we are praying for you without ceasing.

Big Hug,

Mama C <3
