Today is the Big Day!

Last night we slept pretty good... considering! I think I got up about 1:00 a.m. to see what time it was, and was very disappointed to find that it was still the middle of the night. We were both awake many times over the next few hours, and so we finally decided to go ahead and get up (5:00 a.m.) and get the day started. We are going to meet Rob and Michelle downstairs for breakfast, and then HSF will be here at 10:00 for a short meeting before we meet our kids. Tuk is supposed to have Abe here at 10:45 a.m. and we will stay here until about 2:00 before heading out to the boys' orphanage. There Abe will have his going away party and we will provide pizza for the boys - about 31 of them! My mind can't wrap around the days events, so I don't think I will even try. It's been a long time coming, and then to be here and see the Thai way of life mixed with all the governmental issues... I can't wait to bring him home!

Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there - Mom, I miss you and I'm sorry I'm not there with you today like I always have been- but I have an awesome present for you and I'm sure he can't wait to meet you! :)

We will post more later after the day's events...!
