For some reason this is going to be perfect. And who knows! Maybe having your kids home will be just the needed thing for Asher during your cocooning time. I have NO doubt you will have an abundance of folks waiting to help with your other two while you focus on getting Asher attached. My excitement is growing with each day as I realize June is truly just around the corner. Then we will all breathe a collective sigh of relief and celebrate (at arm's distance of course so Asher knows who his mama and daddy are first and foremost) and then I'll finally get to watch this little man become part of his forever family...so thankful. What a crazy ride.woosterweesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16768163870494533835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-37189687341905284952012-02-29T13:59:04.745-08:002012-02-29T13:59:04.745-08:00So happy for you guys!

I am so looking forward to hearing your travel journal, and how you get on in crazy busy Bangkok. Does your agency decide where you stay or do you have to pick a hotel yourselves? We have found apartmenthotels or hotels with suites are handyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-92207426003315912192012-02-28T22:56:50.947-08:002012-02-28T22:56:50.947-08:00Oh, yeah!!!!!!!

In some ways harder, for sure, but in many ways better. It will give your older kids a chance to settle too in a concentrated time environment and snatch that extra special attention they will want as they get used to how their family has changed too. It will be nice to just be able to stay home on those crazy days, especially in the beginning then doing the back and forth to school runs. Though God's plan is certainly almost always harder, it is always better. That is sooooooo special you get to be there with some other families. What a gift!!! Sharing your journey with people who "get it" is priceless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24266137.post-23270415286175198662012-02-28T21:36:48.048-08:002012-02-28T21:36:48.048-08:00I am already envisioning Asher at our July 4 campo...I am already envisioning Asher at our July 4 campout. I looked up how to say "marshmallow" in Thai. I couldn't read the Thai alphabet, but I heard the pronunciation! I'll work on it and will have it perfected by July 4.
