Randy and I reached a bit of a compromise. 2 days after he called telling me we have to wait, he decided that yes we can go as planned. The catch is that I have to stay with someone until he gets up here which should be the 7th. We were looking at a week and my foster parents were gracious enough to let us right in!! I'm actually looking forward to that part, but I believe, going into it, that God is giving me the opportunity to make sure I bite my tongue in ways I normally wouldn't. Let's just say I now have to live with someone who gets on my nerves. Must keep the peace.
Anywhoooo.....Randy brought down one of the few cousins I like to help keep an eye on the kids when I pack and help me pack when they are gone. I was happy for the help, but an emergency has arisen with her health. So, I either take her back to Omaha now, come back, finish packing and move to Omaha who knows when, or I leave here, packed or not, Tuesday February 26 with the clothes needed for 2 weeks. Randy will bring the rest of it when he can. So now it looks like I'll be with my 'parents' for 2 weeks instead of one and they still seem to be thrilled with the idea. It will be a challenge for my little guys. We are beginning to talk about it today. Maybe by Tuesday they'll be ready.
They said goodbye to their aunt, uncle and cousins yesterday. It went well until they had to get in the car for us to leave, but that's the usual thing over there as there are lots of things to play with.
Thought I'd update. 3 days and counting.
