It is getting so close. It seems now, that as we make plans for the rest of the summer, we are making plans for 5. Church picnic, Work picnic, etc. I also think that each night, I'm dreaming about something different, but Toby is in the dreams so clearly now. I spent some time on the airline website this morning, just confirming what I can and can not bring on the plane. The hard part will be traveling with a stroller and diaper bag, but no baby! I'm sure we'll get some strange looks, and possibly some additional security checks. Fortunately, our trip is out and back in a day, so Nate and I will have very little carry on for ourselves.
There are moments, where I begin to think about everything Toby is going through, and I get so nervous for him. We are ready for him to come home, but are we really! It is going to be so exciting, but so overwhelming all at the same time. Our tiny brains can not even comprehend what he is going through. But God knows, and I have been praying every day, since we knew Toby was our son, that God would protect him and prepare him for the changes ahead. And that God would help Toby connect with us through the photos we sent in April, and through our love as he comes home. Please continue to pray with us for that!
God is Good!
