Leaving on a jet plane!!

In all of the commotion and excitement I forgot to update the blog to let everyone know we cleared embassy!!  We got the email at 2:20 am on Wednesday morning.  Our agency immediately replied to embassy requesting the 15th for our appointment.  (I don't think Sheila ever sleeps!)

We are leaving this Sunday morning at 10:30 and will fly to Washington D.C. to spend the night.  On Monday morning we board a plane headed straight to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia!  Our son will be in our arms in 3 days!!!  We arrive back in Birmingham on Oct. 19th at 6:30.

I am not sure if I have mentioned it before but we are taking our 6 year old son and my mother in law is also going.  We are so excited to show them the beautiful country our son is from.  

Thank you to everyone who has prayed along with us!  We are going to get our son!!  God is Good!!!
