WE HAVE TICKETS!

After a 2 hour trip to Dallas and over an hour at the counter line, we have tickets. We leave on March 15th! Now we can get our Colombian visa. I am so excited but a bit nervous. Sometimes I think, what if he doesn't like us. What if he doesn't want to come back with us. Then, I imagine him playing with Tiffany in our backyard or playing basketball with John. I know these are natural thoughts because I had them with Tiffany too but not as much. It is probably because he is older than what Tiffany was. Needless to say, we are going to get him and we can't wait.

Oh, and as for our trip to Dallas to do some shopping too. I didn't get anything on the list I had made. We only picked up a few books from Books-A-Million to do some schooling while we are waiting to bring him home.

We have to get ready for another home visit today. We just found out on Thursday that Texas requires a homestudy update 30 days before getting your child if your homestudy is more than 6 months old. Another $350.00 we weren't counting on. Due to price increases and changes to requirements our adoption went up almost $2000.00 more than what we had planned. We knew things could change but why does it always seem to be with a price tag. Oh well, we have been able to provide so far thanks to the support of our family, friends and the Lord up above.
