Ah, packing. What can I say? It's stressful and exciting, and I'm all rolled up into a big hairy ball of emotions. God willing, we will see our little guy on Monday! I'm trying to find out when we can actually post pictures of him - hopefully sooooon! Kenzie and Liam seem to be excited this week, not too teary about us leaving them behind - that was last week. We've been waking up early, going to bed late, trying to ride the waves of adrenaline, watching the election news, and doing a million little things.
Today I'm making a small photo album of us and our house and extended family for our little guy. What will he think? Pictures just don't really represent that well, but hopefully it'll help him somewhat. Got a pix of his car seat in the van and his potty that's shaped like a soccer ball. But more importantly, sweet pictures of his brother and sister!!
We covet your prayers for safe travel, safe Kampala, smooth court precedings, swift Embassy appointments and for our little guy - that God would be getting him ready for his new family and life.
We'll have email and Facebook access while in Uganda so we'll try to send a few updates.....
Much love to you all and God's blessings on your day today!
Very exited for you! I remember doing all of that with my sister when we were waiting to get her from India, plenty of delays and red tape but so worth it! My prayers are with you and your beautiful family and to God be all the Glory! - Tiffany
