We are leaving in nine hours!!!

Well we are pretty much packed, the kids are at Grandma and Grandpa's house and the dog is with a friend! In nine hours our plane will be taking off for Korea (via Denver and San Francisco )! Today has been so full of emotions. I was sick to my stomach most of the morning, actually I have been for about three days. This is one of the most amazing experiences of my life and it definitely rivals labor (even the sickness!). I am feeling better now that we are packed and the kids are settled. Our oldest son, Gabriel, had a really hard time with us leaving - it took all I had not to burst into tears along with him. We have never been this far or gone this long from our kids before. I think that is what is I am the most nervous about - just making it back safely!!! On the other hand I am soooooooo excited and can not believe that we will be leaving tomorrow morning, flying halfway around the world and someone is going to give us a baby - our baby girl!!!!!!!!!!! Well, anyhow as you can see I am a basket of emotions. I started getting misty this afternoon when I was talking to our neighbors about watching our house ! Well I know I won't sleep anyway so I am going to get this disaster of a house cleaned up now before we leave so we can come home to peace (ha, ha)!!!!! Keep us in your thoughts and prayers and we will post from KOREA!!!!!!! Yahoo!!!!!
