Panic, terror, or delight?

What's going through Ellie's mind here?  Sheer panic or utter terror or supreme delight?

That's kind of how we feel right now.  Packing for our move to Dallas, studying for the GRE, saying goodbye to family and friends, learning Swahili, finishing the homeschool year, connecting with partners and trying to find new partners.

But surprisingly, we're really calm.  God has granted us overwhelming grace to enjoy this time with family and friends.  He strengthens us everyday to finish our work and prioritize our time.  We actually look forward to meeting new people in new churches and new situations.

So maybe this picture is a better illustration of how we feel right now...
United and excited, plunging into the unknown.
