Day 1 trip 2- part 2

Yeah so iPad isn't the most user-friendly thing in the world when it comes to typing, blogging, or uploading. I had to post what I was writing and continue on a new blog because it wouldn't let me curse down to the bottom. Arrow keys would be really helpful.

And I digress...

So as I was saying. I had to get a hold of the team to find out when I could get the court decree as it was supposed to be available Wednesday. Luckily I had thought ahead and asked Joel Golden for Rachel's cell before I left. She called Yulia for me and gave her my cell number and asked her to call me. I never heard from her but Sherry White said she's picking hers and mine up tomorrow before noon. Hmm let's hope so because the embassy is closed Friday through Tuesday and we can't get anything done then. We really need to start some of the paperwork Thursday. We shall see!

I had a great time at TGIF's with a bunch of RR families for dinner. I got to reconnect with Karrie Cannell and finally meet Donnie. I got to see Sherry and meet her son, Keegan. And I got to meet and talk to some amazing families, one of whom gets to take her little girl HOME on Friday!

Overall it's been great to be back. I can't sleep well so jet lag should set in hard today (thursday). I fixed the internet in my apt at 3:30am today, hard boiled some eggs for breakfast, and have been blogging away. More like a super long journal entry. I promise I'll post pics when I figure it out. Until then...

That had to be funny when you appeared sans spectacles and with a different hairdo! It is wonderful to know that he knows you are there for him. He will be so excited when he gets home and sees everyone else. I have been waiting anxiously for new postings from you and am very hopeful that all the paperwork gets done in record time. Micah, like your other son, is one adorable boy!
