Travel Plans

I spent yesterday making our travel arrangements. Our flights and hotel have both been confirmed. We will fly out of Jackson at 3:25 pm on Thursday Nov. 8. We will arrive in Hanoi, Vietnam on Saturday Nov. 10 around 10 am. We will be staying at the Somerset Grand in a two bedroom apartment.

I still can't believe that we have our travel dates. I keep pinching myself. Unfortunately two of the families that I was waiting with still don't have their dates. It breaks my heart because I know full well what they are going through. It's made worse by the fact that they are the last or almost last of the Dong Anh families waiting. I'm hoping they get to travel the week after us. Waiting for travel is the most difficult time. There is really nothing anyone can say to help. Even though you know that everything is fine and the agency and the people in Vietnam are doing everything they can it's still hard. All you want is to hold you child in your arms. Please keep the families that are still waiting in your prayers.
