from court decision to travel at this time." I caved and e-mailed my specialist yesterday to get a take on how much longer I will have to wait to hold this child in my arms. And it looks like I only have about 7 weeks left to go. YEAH!!! So that means...OMG We are going to Africa in about 7 weeks. As those of you who have been following this journey all along know, time lines can change. Much of our travel date hinges on our Birth Certificate and that whole process is at the mercy of the power outages, which continue to occur on a very regular basis. Once we have the BC, then things can start to move quicker and we will get our official date.
As for flights, we are currently leaning toward Emirates Air, which would have us traveling a day earlier and staying in Dubai overnight. But that doesn't sound too bad! To have a chance to shower and sleep in a bed before getting to addis might be great. But again, we'll have to see what is available once we have that travel date.
The bummer of 8 weeks, is it is the first week of school. The kids start on Thursday and we would most likely leave on Tuesday and return the following Saturday (12 days total) Porr Z is already very worried about us not being home for this. I am so torn, but at this point, I need to be with the child that needs us the most, and that is sunshine. I am praying for a miracle and the possibility that we could travel at the 7 week mark instead. That would be wonderful.
Stay tuned....the saga continues!
