All Packed and Ready to Go

We finally finished most of our packing last night. It took some effort but we finally have the luggage below 50lbs each. The weight adds up so quickly. The hardest part is trying to plan for just in case the 10 days are waived and we end up staying. We don’t expect that to happen, but you never know. I tried to cut down on my clothes and I managed a little. We are also trying to pack clothes and toys for Evan Kirill just in case.

Evan Kirill turned 16 months old yesterday. It is hard to believe that we are leaving tomorrow for Trip 2. It has been 10 weeks and a day since we have seen him. I know he has changed so much. We will get to see Evan again on 5/27 and we will have court on 5/28. If the 10 days are not waived we will return to the States on 5/29 and return to Russia on 6/7.

Please keep us in your prayers as we travel and make the adjustments to being new parents. Please pray especially for Evan that he will have a smooth transition and attachment to us. It will be a scary time for him to leave the only home he has ever known.
