The day started early for me. I was up at 2:50, and without an alarm! Paula and I arrived at the airport at about 7:40. Thanks to Chris Grace for dropping us off. All of our suitcases are EXACTLY 50 pounds each. That is, of course, after we laid bare everything in all of them to shift weight around from 2 that were over the limit. Few things in life bring as much dignity as opening all your personal belongings for all of the world to see. At least they did not see my guitar-themed boxers.
We will go Atlanta, JFK, then to arrive in Kiev tomorrow morning. We will be greeted by George the Jedi (see other blog) at the airport.
We found out yesterday that our daughter was told by the orphanage director that we were only coming for a visit. I don't know why they do that. She knows the real reason we are coming (because our translator translated), but was told to act surprised when the "veil is lifted." Hey, it's all about pageantry in Ukraine.
Paula already misses the kids. We ask that you pray for Chris and Lily, who both have sinus infections.
Well, the plane just arrived, so I will sign off for now. We will post again whenever something happens.
