An Update

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Can I just say we've been super duper busy? We've been visiting friends, spending time with family, shopping, packing, and just trying to maintain daily life with our four kiddos.

As for the update...

We were scheduled to depart the US today. However, due to the strike planned for tomorrow at London's Heathrow Airport, we rebooked our tickets. We will not be leaving the US until next Tuesday, December 6.

We were and still are pretty much packed and ready to go. We are ready to get back "home". The kids keep asking when we are going to Africa. Mommy and Daddy are ready to sleep in their own bed. We are all ready to start the adjustment process with Ezra in our most permanent home. And Mommy is ready for some Ethiopian food. But...

We are thankful for some extra time to relax, let our kids get over their coughs, Mommy get over her cold, enjoy a few more days with our family, and tie up a few more loose ends before we leave!
