I can't believe it. In the morning, I'm getting up and going to the airport. I can't even believe it. It has been such a long process for us. We literally started waiting in January and I'm finally leaving. I just checked out this blog of a family who picked up their son a few hours ago. It was different. I could finally feel it coming. My time is near. I'm getting our son and bringing him home. It is such an incredible feeling. One I obviously am not articulating very well.
7 days. 7 days and I'm a mom to 3. Physically taking care of 3 everyday. Wow. I'm just excited.
They still have not issued Prasun's passport. I can only hope I get the email before I leave in the morning. If not then I'll deal with it in India. Our director gave me several scenarios about getting it at different times. Dillon is very hands on and always provides tons of information.
Well I'm going to finish my last few things. Trying not to leave Patrick with a ton of laundry while I'm gone. My next post should be from India.
