I cannot believe it. Though I should know better cuz God is just that good and so many... SO many have been praying. But Everything went as well as it could have. Our flights left and arrived on time. Our luggage got all the way to Columbus over 3 flights and a 24 hour layover in Hong Kong. Our paperwork was all in order. None of us got pulled out of any lines for security or sickness reasons. The weather held off. John and Darren came out in the most luxureous mini-van I've ever been in to drive us through sleet, snow and ice from the Columbus airport and wouldn't even let us touch the luggage. I was greeted at the door by Jack yelling daddy daddy! To me that is the most overwhelming point of the day. My heart burst. All that time missing him just burst out. I couldn't talk for a long time. I do love my boy!
Jack was SUPER excited to see Eme too. the first thing he did was fix the cuff of her big, fluffy bear coat so her hand was out. He said something like, "you need to have your hand out". Precious. She wasn't too scared of him. She shied away from Erin's mom and a was just a liiiittle warmer to her Dad but she mostly clung to Erin or I.
We sat downstairs for a long while just jabbering and squeezing Jack and letting everyone see Eme. It was a wonderful feeling. I wish all of our family could have been there. We're going to have to make a New England tour super soon.
We then went up to Eme's room, now redecorated by our friends. How cool is that? It's awesome by the way. Eme has a nice, soft-pink room that is girly sweet like her.
Now comes the figuring out how to get her onto EST. THAT could be fun.
Here goes the real adventure!
