We have tickets!!

It's official! We are booked on flights to Eastern Europe. Wow. It felt like this day might never arrive. Praying for no glitches and for smooth sailing. Now if I can just survive next week! Lets see...2 field trips, 3 IEP meetings, a baseball game, 2 kids with picnics....! I'm tired just thinking about it. I think packing will need to wait a week.

I'm going to see my babies!

The reality is slowly setting in. I am a bit afraid to embrace the excitement, because it feels like the waiting has been forever and it can't really be true that it is almost time! There is so much to do, so much to plan and coordinate, but I am having a hard time focusing on any of that today. In a few short weeks I will SEE them...my precious little ones, live and in person! I will get to touch them, to hear their voices for the first time, to have them finally know that we exist, to start to help them understand that they are loved, that they have a mommy and daddy....the day can't get here soon enough! We are finally coming, Luke and Irina! FINALLY!
