I'm flying out to Riga today to go pick up our girl. We still can't believe this day is finally here! I have two short layovers in Chicago and Warsaw before I'll get to Latvia but it shouldn't be too bad. Not much I can do about it at this point anyway.
Rob and I want to thank all of you for your donations of shoes, clothes, games, etc. We were overwhelmed by your generosity. I'm taking the maximum baggage items allowed and I've got those bags jam packed. Not one crevice is empty! Now we just need you to pray that all of the bags make it! :-)
I've checked and rechecked all our documents so I think we're good to go. I'll be arriving in Riga at 1:55 Latvian time. Olegs and Christina are supposed to take the bus to come meet me at the flat after I arrive. I can't wait! Plus, we have friends who are there for their first adoption visit, so I hope to hook up with them at some point. Will keep you posted.
I'll post again as soon as I can from Riga. As always, thanks for your many prayers as we continue this life changing adventure.
