It's becoming more difficult to find time to post these days. We're leaving in just 29 days (HOLY MOLY!!!!), so we have A LOT of preparations. Also, school starts a week from today so we're trying to juggle "back to school" madness with all the travel stuff. Once school starts and I'm no longer doing child care for Ceci, there will be time to exhale and really get things done.
Our adoption agency has asked us for our itinerary, but we're still waiting to hear back from the travel agent. I got a lot accomplished this afternoon regarding house/babysitters while we're gone. The confusing schedule is finally in writing and makes complete sense. We're so blessed to have found out that a seasoned, trusted sitter we had for many years is available that week, despite the fact that she graduated Law School and moved out of town last year. She's agreed to cover most of the weekdays and a Saturday- thank you, Sara! All other hours will be covered by one of Liam's school paras, and a newer homecare worker. We are amazed at how easily this is all coming together. Five of the days Liam and Sorin will be at their dad's in Kansas City, so it will only be Andrew here (he'll get a lot of 1:1 which he thrives on). He'll be visiting with Grammy Lin several times for comfort and continuity. Whew! The trip just went from feeling overwhelming and impossible to do-able, and now I'm tweaking a folder of notes along with a 10 day menu plan.
Hopefully we'll get our flights booked today.... we're getting closer, Amelie!!!
