WE'RE COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yet another miracle from the hand of God in our adoption...everything came through. WE ARE FREE AND CLEAR TO COME HOME!!!!! Praise Jesus! We had been told that it could take 3 weeks...we could hope for only 2, but with the holidays things could move slow. Here we are...getting ready to come home tomorrow!!!!! We were in the car driving to visit the beach today when I got the call. I was able to praise Jesus for seeing us through this while gazing at the wonder of his beautiful creation. It was such a special time. I collected all kinds of seashells to bring home for the girls.

Courtney has taken such great care of us...we have had a wonderful time together! She is such a dear...it will be sad to leave her yet exciting to bring Hudson home to meet his sisters, and aunties and uncles, and grandmas and grandpas, and all our friends and prayer warriors. Please pray that our day of travels goes smoothly!

If you know us in person, you are more than welcome to come see Hudson come home. Our plane comes in at just before 8pm tomorrow night!

Girls--Mommy can't wait to see you and smoother you with kisses! I love you and miss you so much!!!!

Hmmmff. I guess since I don't know you IRL, I won't be at the airport, - but that doesn't mean I won't be covering you in prayer & DYING to see pics of Hudson with his sisters!

Just put socks on his hands so no one touches him....people do that on airplanes...I don't know why. Also....use Germex yourself...you'll do great! Do I sound paranoid?

Auntie K--I have the baby mittens ready to go. I have the germX in my bag. I will wear him in a sling to keep people away. And I will not talk to strangers! :)

PLEASE PRAY--

I make all of our connections. I don't have a whole lot of time between flights.

I can find all of the correct gates smoothly.

For strength for me as I will be holding him for the entire day...not that I mind, just not quite sure how bathroom breaks are going to go, you know! ;)

For safety and peace as I travel with him.

I feel a little nervous about tomorrow's adventure...but I am trusting God to guide us through the entire day. I will appreciate you praying us through this one last big day. Thank you so much!!!

Oh...I think I might be able to be there! :) Woohoo! My girls will be so jealous but I think I have been given the nod to go to town BY MYSELF today...if I can hang around til that time, I'm so there!

Praying for your travels.

Do you need anything? I can gather some stuff today to bring with me.
