Here We Go..........

Can't believe in a few short hours we will finally be boarding a plane headed to Honduras.  It is so exciting and yet I'm nervous, scared, worried and just praying and hoping for the best.  I can't believe after three years we are finally going to get to meet her.  After 7 months of working on this we are finally going to see her face to face.  We are so excited.

It has been a busy week trying to get ready to leave.  So many things to do.  The kids were with us all weekend but unfortunately most of my weekend was spent trying to finish up school work.  It seems like it went by in the blink of an eye. 

We bought Michell a Innotab which is kind of like a kids version of an I Pad.  It has games and movies on it.  (Things to keep a 3 yr old entertained while being held up in a hotel for a week)  Anyway, the kids recorded a video for Michell in Spanish saying hello to her and telling her their names and that they loved her.  It was so cute.  It makes me very emotional to see how loving my kids are.  I didn't know how they would accept all of this with Michell.  They absolutely adore Micah but I was worried it might be different with Michell but it's not.  They are excited about her coming.  The girls are excited about having a "little sister" and Mason is just excited about having another little person to play with.  The girls went shopping this weekend and came back with a pair of shoes for her.  It just makes my heart smile to see that they love her too.

We dropped the kids off this evening with their dad and we are staying with a friend in Dallas.  She is taking us to the airport in the morning.  I will try to keep everyone updated the best I can and hopefully we will have good news to share very soon.

Until then, we have a very specific prayer request......please pray for a safe trip for us and please pray that her Visa is approved and that we get it Thursday. 

Thank you again to everyone who has following our story.  I will be blogging from Honduras for those who want to keep up with us.

Good Night, hope I can sleep :)
