5 days left

Confirmed our flights today and we leave on Tuesday morning!! Because it's so last minute I had a hard time finding flights. We were very limited on our options. But, it's booked, and that's one huge thing to cross off my list. We fly back hom on Sept. 4th....with Jada! She's coming home. Not sure I'll post anything else before we leave b/c I have to pack!! I'm elated and crazy nervous at the same time. Thanks for your prayers along the way!!

Wow, that's even earlier than you thought you'd leave! E-mail us and let us know what time your flight is supposed to get in on the 4th so Michael knows and can hopefully make it. Obviously if it's too late in the evening he won't be able to since he'll have the boys. Can't wait! We will be praying!

Praising the Lord for moving things along!

PS I spoke with someone today at the soccer fields in town that brought a little boy home about 6weeks ago. She said there are 5 families in the blocks close to their home who have adopted or are adopting from Ethiopia in our town. How fun is that! You may already know her. :)
