Getting closer....

to take off. Or freak out. Depends on how you look at it. I have been going crazy , trying to keep on top of my "to do" lists, and take care of 2 sick kiddos (again) while fielding calls for the rental house AND fighting off a cold myself ,Michael has so much going on at work, which is another level of stress. BUT we are trying to stay focused on the big picture. Sweet baby girl :) Leaving our kiddos will be very hard. we have never left them. I know this will be a chance for dh and I to connect and enjoy Ethiopia and bonding with baby girl without worrying about the kids. Missing them-yes worrying -no :)
Some pics coming tonite :) off to run errands.
