Arrival Date!!

We found out today that our kids will arrive in Atlanta on June 26 at 11:24 PM. Yes, PM!! They will probably spend an hour or so in customs before we even get to see them! Pray pray pray for no delays with the flights and a speedy customs check! I think we will put Eileen, Merrick and Adalynn to bed around 4:00 or 5:00 PM and try to let them sleep and then wake them up around 9:30 or so to go to the airport. I think it's very important for Rebeka and Roberts to see everyone they will be living with for the summer as soon as they arrive. I think having the children there will make them feel more comfortable as well. Merrick and Addie will probably sleep in the stroller, but I'm sure Eileen will have tons of energy as always! Plus, Craig, Eileen and I will have so much anxious energy that we won't be tired one bit! We will all sleep very well (and late!) the next day. Hopefully it will give Rebeka and Roberts time to get used to the time difference and catch up on some sleep.
We also found out they will leave on July 31 at 1:20 PM. So they will be here for 2 days short of 5 weeks. I wish they didn't leave until later. I'm sad for that time already. I hope that I can remember to enjoy the moments while they are here instead of dreading when they have to leave the whole time.
We have about $780 left to raise by April 30! That is so awesome! God has done amazing things in getting the money for the hosting to us! I am going to try my best to continue trusting in Him for all things! I am leaving my job of almost 11 years to be a stay-at-home mom at the beginning of June so trusting God to provide is going to be something I learn BIG time soon! :)

Thank you for your prayers!
