That's Your Job.

 
 
Almost 250 books have left my hands in the last two weeks.
Another 500 are being distributed by Amazon, BarnesandNobles.com and several private book stores.

I am excited, humbled and amazed that you all have been walking this journey with us.
 
The Hero asked me what I was going to do when this was over.
When all 1000 books are sold and we've chosen a site for the well.
I told him I really wasn't sure.
 
A really great friend is leaving for Ethiopia in the coming months.
She offered to take a copy of the book with her and read it to K.
It sounded great.
K would see the book in record time and would have a copy to keep.
 
I was telling The Hero her offer the other night.
He let me finish.
 
"Linz. Reading your book to K is only one person's job.
Yours."
 
I love it when he's right.
Just the thought of another trip to Ethiopia makes my heart leap.
I don't know dates or times or length.
But the last copy of my book left in my possession is already spoken for.

I love you! And, I have to say, I love your husband for being right! I know you are dying for K to see this book, but it is absolutely for you to read to him! I am so proud of you for getting this book out there, and so honored to be your friend :)
