The Day Has Arrived

We slept pretty well, actually. Were awakened this morning by a phone call and are off and running. Made a last minute run to a Meijer (like a Target) last night and picked up the last remaining needed items....like bubble bath. We feel really calm and settled, not at all like me before an international flight. As many of you know, we travel a lot and usually I am nervous. But today? Just excited and a little apprehensive. I think it's all your prayers.
Pray for us. For our flights, connections and luggage, of course. For our day we have free before we get the girls, that we would get all our shopping done and lots of pictures taken. For Sunday morning, your time. We will be meeting the girls then and from that time on, they will be living with us. Pray for a good week of bonding and creativity for Curt and I to get involved in their lives without language. Pray for our Embassy appointment, Tuesday morning, your time. That all would go smoothly and that we would get the girls' visas on Thursday, as planned, to catch our Friday night flight. And pray as the Lord leads :).
We will not bring our computer (one more thing to carry) but will try to get on someone else's to keep you posted. But we are heading to a third world country so don't expect much. Next time you hear from us, we'll have our girls!
