THREE MORE DAYS!!

With only 3 more days until we leave for Ethiopia, I am busy making lists, packing, and loving on my kids as much as possible. The plane tickets arrived via Fed*Ex yesterday. Robb picked up our $260 worth of travel medications at the pharmacy yesterday, ouch! Our suitcases are almost full. We have one suitcase full of donations for the orphanage, so that leaves one suitcase to fill with things we buy in country. I am excited to get some Ethiopian dresses for Ruby and Brylie, some fun toys for the boys and some African decor for our house. I always want Ruby to be familiar with where she came from. Today I am going to town to try to get some things crossed off our list. I will probably end up making one more trip before we go. Tomorrow evening we are having a little birthday party for Hunter. He will have a party with his friends after we get home. We ordered his gift so he should get that while we are gone. It is all getting so close and I find myself incredibly excited, a little nervous (a third world country scares me a little), and sad that I have to leave my 3 kids. There are so many people praying for all of these aspects and I do feel completely covered. This will be an amazing journey that will have a lifetime affect on both Robb and I.
