Here We Go.

I am sitting in Lilah Abeba's adorable room.

It is 1:24 AM.

We are packed.

We are ready.

The house is relatively clean, all things considered, except for my sons' room and that's their problem that they shall remedy tomorrow morning.

And the next time I fall asleep in this house I will have had the privilege of putting my sons AND my daughter to bed that night.

I am so grateful.

I am so grateful to so many of YOU who helped us out in so many ways: financially, physically, spiritually... we have needed and been given so very much.  THANK YOU.  We really wouldn't be here without so many people.

I am just so grateful.

My heart is so full.

Your family is coming, sweet little flower!!!

Just 3 more sleeps without us, and then we are yours for the rest of your life.

And we can't wait.

Sniff! So happy for you, Gayla! You made it and now the best part is only a few days away!!! Have a wonderful, safe and smooth trip. I will be praying that your transition is a smooth one. When you get back and settled I want to hear all about it, including any tips about the transition with an older child!

Lots of love,
Heidi
