The Box!!!

Granny sent us a Christmas box on November 15th.  It arrived in Russia on November 29th and in Saint Petersburg on December 2nd.  We waited…and waited…and waited.  We got notification that the box had been delivered to us on December 15th…but we continued to wait…and wait…and wait.  We prayed…and prayed and prayed.  Keith made daily trips to the Post Office.  I was so confident, I even bet Granny money that it would arrive.  So many visits had been made to Post Offices, emails had been sent {even from Granny to the Russian Post Master!}.  Saturday, we concluded that the box would not be coming.  Just when we thought all hope was lost…Keith checked a different Post Office this morning and found the box that had been waiting for us for a week! 

I am so thankful!  I am thankful that Granny sent gifts, but even more thankful that God answered our prayers…even when we had given up!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
