Christmas Miracle

Finally! We have tickets in hand and we are going to Ethiopia for Christmas. Sam and I leave for Ethiopia on Wednesday December 16, and will be hugging and kissing our boys Friday morning...and hopefully not crying too hard is my goal. We return home Christmas night, for what I imagine will be an unforgettable Christmas for all. I can hardly believe it is really happening. We've talked about and prayed for this day to come for 9 months now, and now that it is here we are a little "freaked out" by the unknown. "Are we ready, will they like us?" are just two of the thousands of thoughts that run through my head all day long. A couple of nights ago I dreamt I brought the wrong kids home. UGG!
So much to do in the next two days, hence this blog is brief. I am hoping to post some pictures while we are there, so stay tuned. Thanks to all for your love and support the last 9 months. We couldn't have done it without you.
