Mika turned 16 months old today! It's hard to believe that this little girl will be walking and running around our house in 3 weeks!
I got a lot of packing done, so I'm reveling in the feeling of accomplishment! Hopefully, I can finish the rest tomorrow and run the errands I have left.
Here's our flight schedule: Annie, Noah and I (Heather) leave at 6:00 am Wednesday morning to fly to Portland, OR. Rich and Kiana fly out on Thursday. And then Friday, the 19th is the day we leave for China! It's going to be tough saying goodbye to the kids, and I'm sure I'll be crying on the way to the airport. But I keep on reminding myself that this is a short period of time in the grand scheme of things, right?!
My prayer today is that that the nannies in Mika's orphanage are preparing her for the fact that we'll be coming to get her. I have no idea what they'd say to a girl her age, but I'm hoping they throw around the "mommy and daddy" concept. God's big...He can prepare her for what's about to happen to her.
