Well - we have packed our bags and given them to the bell boys, in the expectation that we are on the flight today. The Canadian Embassy has given us the 99.6% assurance that our paperwork will be ready...but they won't guarantee it 100% until we go to the Embassy on the way to the airport. Yes, the nailbiting final moments... If you don't hear from us in the next 12 hours, it is because we made it on the plane!! If you do hear from us...well...let's just hope not.
The girls this morning are both doing great. No fevers, and a full, good night's sleep for both. Olivia is teething though making her quite unusually cranky. So we look forward to having a good flight with both of them, and hopefully they sleep for a majority of it as it will be their night time.
Thanks to everyone for your prayers, support and ongoing comments. They were the pillar that held our arms up during this trip.
Our next posting should be when we're back in our own home.
Looking forward to stepping on Canadian soil very soon!
Love,
Andrew, Margaret, Eliana and Olivia Lucas

What a beautiful day - your homecoming! God really can create great excitement. Just imagine the girls meeting some of their new
family members and family gets to see your new daughters. They WILL
be holding onto their new mom and
dad of 14 days??? 'Tis so sweet to
trust in Jesus. Now when you get home, just rest and rest and rest

Can hardly wait for you to come through those church doors.
