I planned to write a long and in detail post about how much each of your friendships mean to me...but just finished cleaning the house before we leave tomorrow for Cape Town.
And got VERY exciting news tonite. Just heard that we can take Kellen home with us on Friday!!!! (freaking out!)
We thought...in our minds....taking day for day...trusting the process.....:-) I fly out tomorrow, arrive in cpt on friday, go visit with Kellen every second day, and in two weeks we can bring him home with us.
It was all still very unreal/surreal for us. Then tonite they phoned us and said to make preparations to bring him home with us on Friday. I freaked out in a good way!
Thank you for sitting with me, feeling, sharing, comforting, with me through this year.
Your friendship mean made me feel valued and special.
I treasure each one of you.
Please keep contact, as I'll still try to post some photos, but having not been a mom yet, I do not know what this journey is going to be like! (being a teacher you think you know...) but I know nothing...just how to love!!! (which is pretty great!)
I love you and thank you from the bottom of my heart! xx
