i know, i know...

it's almost 10:00 at night, and i'm just now getting this info out.  it's been a looooong day of talking to airlines, coordinating a herd of people to help with the little ones, and doing this freak-out/nesting/packing/cleaning thing that keeps happening when i get new info about our travel dates.

what was that?  travel dates??

that's right, friends!  we found out tentatively yesterday - confirmed today - that we leave next sunday to go get micah and bring him home.  next sunday.  mother's day.  the beauty of that isn't lost on me.

we'll be gone less than a week this time and will be returning to birmingham on the afternoon of saturday, may 14.  so many of you sweet people have asked if it's ok to greet us at the airport when we arrive, and the answer is a resounding YES!  it's yes as long as you don't mind a potentially bleary-eyed, weepy mess of a momma, her pack-mule husband, and the cutest little chubby chunk of preciousness you've ever seen.  :-) 

we are one happy group of people today.  and praise god from whom all blessings flow!!!!!

i am selfishly sadder than sad that we wont be able to be there that day. but that sadness is completely overshadowed by the joy of knowing that your little guy will be home! i KNEW all of this already and it still gave me chills reading it! praying for you over the next 12 days (and of course that travel week too!). love you my friend!
