7 days and counting!

Oh my goodness!! With only 7 short days to go, I find myself wondering how I'm going to get everything organized for our trip, while working at the same time. So much to do, so little time! My personality is such that I'm usually ready for events far in advance. Although we've been ready and waiting, there are now things that have to be done that couldn't be done before. We've made the flight reservations, and today will make our hotel reservations. I thought I'd faint when I was told that if we check more than our 1 allowed checked bag/pp, it wold be $250!!!!!!!! So, there will be no extra bag for the things I wanted to take for Viktorija. We'll get creative with our packing, I guess. Our flight will be approx 16 hours. I'm thankful for the NOOK Mike got me for Christmas! I can read, access internet, play games, etc. This should keep me occupied for some time:-)

Continue to keep us in your prayers. My heart races, I can't sleep, and I have mixed emotions that go from excitement to fear. Once I see her sweet face and can hug her I know I'll be fine. But, for now, we press forward the best we can, with God's help.
