Emily,
I’ve been thinking about all of you daily – and knowing that many must be reaching out to you, so I’ve waited to see if you would post something to find out how you are doing. Interestingly, you are doing just about exactly as I thought you would be. I completely support you and Dave in your decisions and hope that I would be as brave as you if my kids were in the same situation. I’ve always felt, particularly after my time in Israel so long ago, that if there is any place on earth that deals so well with terrorists and violence – it is Israel and the Israelis! Praying for peace and safety (and sane minds!!) for everyone!

I was in tears as I finished reading this, and cannot imagine being nearly so eloquent were I in your situation. Sending you and your family prayers and strength, and – as always – admiring the heck out of your parenting skills and style. Noah is one very lucky boy.

Em,
Every thought, every emotion we share with you and feel ourselves, having the faith and confidence that this will be the trip of a life time perhaps actually life changing for Noah. No one ever said parenting was easy, at ANY age, we’re with you all the way.
