We found out yesterday that someone had gotten our credit card number in Sweden (Sweden!) and had put $4000 worth of charges on it. They were flying somewhere because some travel agency in Germany had booked them a flight. Our bank is great and dropped the charges and sent us a new card. It's just bad timing...
We leave a week from today. 10 days from today (March 22nd) we will go to the orphanage and pick up our three girls. Last night, though exhausted from being booked nightly for the last 4 weeks, I lay awake thinking about our new-life-to-be. How would they sleep? Who will they think we are? What will we do with them? We don't want to bring a lot to entertain them since they are used to having little. We still want them to learn to use their imagination and enjoy making things up.
Yesterday we wandered around the Dollar Store. Bubbles? Good idea. Squirt gun? Bad idea. Frisbee? Good idea. Cheap, plastic flying toy something? Dumb idea.
Oh no! I'm glad your bank dropped the charges. Bless your hearts.
