Almost Home!

We are sitting in the airport in MSP waiting to board our final flight back home. It is bittersweet. I am so excited to see Kiera. I have missed her so much and talking to her on the phone just now almost made me cry. She always sounds so grown up on the phone. She said "we are coming pick you up mommy and daddy." Oma is bringing her to the airport to pick us up in 5 hours. I cannot wait.

But we also had to say goodbye to Ethiopia (where our son is now sleeping in the care of wonderful nannies). We did not get to say goodbye to him on Friday before we left because our flight from Harar to Addis was delayed by 5 hours due to a broken plane (details on that trip to come in another post). So we asked our new friends and fellow adoptive parents to give him a hug for us before they leave. We will miss our little happy boy.

I will try to post details on our trip over the next few weeks. I am also hoping we can post pictures soon (as soon as they tell us we passed court).

Blessings!
The Brandts
