Leaving tomorrow!!
Hard to believe the time has finally come. We are leaving tomorrow to bring our son home forever!!! It still seems so unreal to me.
I guess because I haven't even begun to pack. So I am off to get started. I will keep you posted. Dina |

Still packing and packing and packing. It is less stressful in some ways the 2nd time around. The unknown was so scary last time and having to care for a baby. I feel a little more confident. Last time I had no idea what any of the gear was for, I was freaked out by what to feed the baby and quite honestly about everything.
This time around the anxiety is more like not forgeting documents, the whole travel thing, and leaving my daughter. Still anxiety but different. I was packed and ready for a month the last time. Also I know I can get almost everything I need in country. I didn't realize this last time, so you don't have to stress about the small stuff. I will probably eat these words, but right now I feel okay. Tomorrow will be a new day. Dina |
