Time to Fly

June twenty-ninth: we
leave to pick our daughter up.
July 10th, we're home.



July 3rd is huge;
things will never be the same.
That day, we hold her.

What words can we say
that will calm her wide-eyed heart?
"'Sarumillya', Love"

Nesting: in progress,
but it's almost time to fly.
Waiting has an end.

Oh, V, I'm so happy, excited for you guys. Tearing up, just thinking nothing but wonderful thoughts of this next part of your journey to pick up Eva. It's wonderful news to hear your due date. :) All our love and prayers for your family, sweet cousin.

Yippeeeeeeeee!

So very, very excited and happy for you both. Congratulations. You will be holding your precious girl very soon. I'll be praying for safe (and speedy) travels and that all three of you will feel a bond that's like no other. Congratulations!

I am so glad for all three of you! What a blessing that the Nanda family is there in case you run into any snags. God is so good.

Oh Vonda! That is great news! We have been wondering how soon it would be, you must be completely overwhelmed with happiness!
My head hurts from squeezing my cheeks so hard while I was reading that! (The "Oh My" position)

Mommy advice: I am sure you know this, but maybe not?! Make sure you take a back pack of toys, coloring books, snacks, ect. for her to play with on the long flight back. When Shannon moved to Florida I packed mini-backpacks for her kids full of suprises and it kept them busy the whole way there. Our favorites have been: Etch a Sketch, Doodle Pro, Magnetic play boards, and Leap Pad.
Just some ideas:)
Happy Flying!
