Guess who leaves in 5 days?!?!?!?!

Our shots are done, only two more oral typhoid vaccine tablets to take, bags are packed (full of donations of formula, diapers--cloth and disposable, and shoes), hopefully our visas will be processed this week, and we are racing to finish our big projects (me--work and school, Ababa--the kitchen and various other projects around the apartment).  We had a wonderful "toddler shower" on Saturday and enjoyed spending time with our friends and B's future BFFs:-)  We had our official travel call with our agency this morning, and we can't believe the time is almost here!

I leave Saturday and Ababa next Tuesday (don't get any ideas about breaking into our place as we have someone staying there while we are gone, and our friends will be keeping an eye on it as well:-)

Please pray that B's aunt's court date goes smoothly tomorrow and that she has peace about her decision, that our MOWA letter is written before we travel for court, and that our travel and court date goes smoothly.  Most of all, please pray for B (and for us) that our hearts are open and we can begin this journey of becoming a family!
