Count down is on...

Ok, we have less than 4 days until we board our plane headed for Uganda!

We will have a quick flight to Seattle and then we'll board a big plane for 15 hours to Dubai AND THEN we will sleep in the airport (we are hoping to find a few comfy benches to crash on). Early that next morning, we will have a 5 hour plane ride to Entebbe then another 2 hour drive . . .

Once we land, pass immigration and get visas we will seek to meet a staff member of our son's babies home. Then we jump in the car and head straight to meet our son!

Can you feel the excitement?

What a privilege it will be to live at the babies home for a short time as we bond and attach to Drew and most importantly, he gets to attach and bond to us!

During our stay, our kiddos will get to "help out" at the home. There are quite a few babies to play with, help feed, give a bath, read books to and run around outside with! They think this will be a fun family vacation but THEY ARE WRONG! They will be loving and serving on these sweet babies while they await their forever families! What a privilege this will be!
