один день!!!!!!

Ok, so I leave tomorrow for this incredible trip. I simply cannot believe this is actually happening. It really does seem like we just left camp, so to have the opportunity to see the kids again so soon...it's just amazing.

We found out yesterday that one orphanage we were going to visit is closed for the holidays, so we are actually going to the orphanage that "my" kids live for TWO days instead of ONE! I am sad that we will not visit those kids (who will most likely be staying with extended family over the holiday), but to have another 8 hours with the kids I am closest to is just...wow. I can't find the words.
One of my closest buddies, Slavik, is turning 16 on January 8th. To be there with him around (maybe on) his birthday....wow again. There are so many special details about this trip and I feel abundantly loved and blessed.

My bag is packed. My airplane outfit is set out. :) Camera is ready with extra batteries to attempt to capture the magic of this visit. There are details I'm forgetting...but none that will hinder this journey.

Thank you to everyone for your support and prayers. It means SO.MUCH. I can't wait to return and share pictures and stories of this amazing holiday adventure.

Love you all!
