Off they go!


Sergio and Hana left today for Ethiopia! This whole time we thought their plane departed at 7:20am, so Sergio and I decided to just stay up all night last night since he'd need to leave the house at 4:00am anyway. Well around 2:45 as we were going over the oodles of paperwork I packed for him, we looked at the tickets and saw his plane didn't leave til 2:20PM! Needless to say, we went straight to bed! It ended up really being a blessing though, because the kids were so happy to wake up to their daddy and Hana still home, and then we all got to take them to the airport this afternoon. As of now, they have 4 hrs left of their 10 hr flight to Frankfurt. They only have a 1 1/2 hour layover in Germany then a 7 hr flight to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Hana's uncle and cousin are picking them up from the airport. It will be nice for Hana to see family so quickly after getting off the plane. I'm going to call Sergio around 9:30am tomorrow, which will be 8:30pm in ET just to make sure they landed safely.

Hana has changed so much. She is growing by the minute. Beautiful girl. Can you imagine what's going through her mind right now being reunited with her family in ET so soon?
