Law Students

For many months, I've been excited about T's spring break plans and have reported them to just about anyone who would listen. Now, her departure is just three days away and I'm getting nervous. I'm taking her to school Thursday morning and dropping her off with all of her luggage and supplies. In the afternoon, a bus will take her and over a dozen of her classmates to the airport to begin their journey.

Then it's Indianapolis to Chicago; Chicago to Amman, Jordan; and Amman to Cairo. Cairo! Isn't that amazing? My sixteen year old daughter is going to spend two weeks experiencing things like watching the Whirling Dervishes, visiting the Great Pyramids, traveling the Nile by felucca, and exploring Wadi Rum by jeep, foot, and camel.

I'm thrilled that she has this fantastic opportunity, especially at her age. Please say a prayer or send good wishes that T and her classmates and chaperones have a safe and successful trip.
