There's a lot Joy and I still don't know about what is going to happen in the next few months, but for anyone interested, we do have some decisions made at least. So here's a rough timeline, if everything works out the way we think. It brings to mind the old line, "If you want to hear God laugh, tell Him your plans." These should be worth a chuckle.
We hope to have heard back from any school still interested in me this week. Within the next couple weeks I will be flying out to visit Nigeria. We hope to have a final decision about where then or very shortly thereafter. So we'll stop being silent/coy/private in a few weeks.
Baby Lavinia arrives June 24 and we begin a frantic dash to get her passported and visad.
Early July we will move out of Ithaca and visit our families in California and Utah, blessing Lavinia in my parents' ward.
Late July or early August we leave for our grand, three year adventure.
I'm sorry we've been keeping rather quiet about things online. It's certainly not for lack of interest as we can find precious little else to talk about that is quite so engaging. Until a decision is made, though, we would rather not jinx anything. The places still on the table are each very interesting prospects that we are excited about and we'd love to tell you more ... soon. We just know we probably won't be in Ithaca for more than another 10 weeks.

Oh, I'm so sad you're leaving so early! I guess we won't be having a summer full of amazing games nights like I'd hoped. Oh, well. Perhaps it would have been too hard after we both had our babies anyway. Good luck! You're in our prayers!!!
