The Date is Set.....

Airplane tickets have been purchased and Linda and myself will be leaving Charlotte on Sept. 2 to arrive in India on Sept 4th! We will pick Meena up on Sept 4th and fly to Delhi on the same day. It is going to be a long trip for us adults. I ask for prayer for strength and energy to sustain us to Delhi. We will essentially be flying for 3 days. We will stay in Delhi until the 10th to get her medical and visa at the US embassy there. We added an extra day in case something gets delayed. (Don't know why I would think something like that would happen in India!!! HeHe) I am apprehensive about leaving Connor again. I just want Meena home and our new "normal" to begin. My parents will be coming to help with Connor. I am glad that I will be here for his transition into 1st grade. His teacher and others at school are aware of our situation so hopefully he will do ok. Connor is not talking about his sister much these days. I know he is dealing with the change and it will be a big change from being an only (spoiled) child to having a sibling. Six years is a long time to have mommy's sole attention. I know that God has gone ahead of me in this journey and he is faithful to carry me through it. So thankful for this knowledge!!! I will update again if anything changes and will keep you posted while we are in India. I appreciate your prayers for a safe journey:)  Colleen
