Our Last Days

The girls are leaving on Friday. sigh…

Honestly, I should leave my blog post right there, in the “enough said” tradition. But I’ll plow through and fill in some of the blanks. We’ve had a busy and fun time, but now we are getting ready for them to transition back to their orphanage. We need to get a picture of them with all of us, so that’s a challenge. Andee will need to come home from DC in the middle of the week, which is a lot of driving for her to do. But we’ll have cake (shhhh, don’t tell the girls!) and it will be a sweet time. Their suitcases are purchased, and they are enjoying all the gifts they have been blessed with during the time they’ve been here.

We have a few last minute things that we are working on. The biggest deal is their photo books. Which I should be working on right this minute instead of this post! We also plan on staying at a hotel on Thursday night near the airport so they can start their day on Friday pleasantly. Then packing, and gifts to send back. One thing I want to get is something to bless all of the children at the orphanage. I am not sure what this just yet, there are 80 of them!

The girls have been showing a little anxiety about returning. Jeimy had an upset stomach on the weekend, and has been a little fearful at night. Monica this morning started with an upset belly. It will be a challenge for me, I think, to keep these last few days light and fun. But hey, I’m up for it!
