Well, here it is the day before Thanksgiving and I just want to say "yay friends!"
Our friends Sally and Joel should be landing tomorrow morning at the Birmingham airport with their new daughter Nilani. from India. We are planning to try to meet them as we travel north to visit my parents. Hopefully all of their flights will connect on time and they won't get held up at immigration when they land in the good old USA.
Our friends Nick and Susan will be taking off first thing the day after Thanksgiving to go get their little man Sam and will return with him on Dec. 6. Isn't this all just too exciting! Both families will have their little ones home before Christmas!
We were all supposed to have dinner on the 16th of this month, but all this adoption stuff changed our plans. That is so very ok with me! It means they will have their children the next time we do get together.
