Christmas with Jayne

November 30 was to have brought Jayne to us for a month at Christmas. When she arrived in Montreal via Air Canada on a ticket purchased from Expedia to board her leg to London via British Airways, she was in for an unpleasant surprise...they refused to board her claiming she was late for the flight. (She was not late - Air Canada had delivered her on time.) So that meant a 24 hour wait in Montreal overnight, and a $250 penalty which she had to pay on the spot.

Well - she did get here, and now we are in a celebrator
y mood as we look forward to the month of December! (Later, she did get her $250 back, plus a credit of $250 to fly BA again. Might never take them up on that one though!)

The hardest part of living overseas is the little you see of your children once they are on their own. Without the conviction that we are where God has clearly led and placed us, this would be the time to cut and run!
