Tell Me That You’ll Wait For Me

Details! Details!

We are leaving today! We fly out of RDU at 7pm and hang out at JFK for a bit, before getting on a 12:50am flight to Seoul. I’ve never flown a red-eye before! I feel so fancy. It’ll be about 4pm on Tuesday when we arrive in Seoul. But in Seoul, it’ll be 5am on Wednesday. After we get our luggage and find a shuttle, we will check into the Renaissance Hotel in Seoul. It is only three blocks from SWS (the agency). We got a great deal on the reservation for the hotel, thanks to Philip at khrc.com.
Once we check in, get settled and freshen up, we are hoping to be able to meet AJ. We’re still waiting on a confirmation that that will work out, so please pray that it does. We are very anxious to meet him! We will likely go to his foster parents house and get to spend some time with him there. But then we have to leave him! How sad!
We will spend Thursday doing some touristy stuff, if the weather holds up.
And on Friday, we should have him in our arms forever! That will give us most of Friday and all of Saturday to get to know each other before we get on the plane on Sunday and come home.
Our flight leaves Seoul at 10am on Sunday, and we arrive in Atlanta at 10:50am on Sunday. Crazy! We have a short flight to RDU after that, and then we’ll be home! As a family of three!!
Wow!

I am just so excited. This is so momentous. My brain can’t even process the kind of life moment this is for you. I can’t imagine.

Oh, Bri!
I am SO excited for you! Been thinking about you all weekend and happy to hear that you were able to fly as soon as Monday because otherwise I know it would’ve been even more difficult to keep waiting. Hope you get to meet AJ as soon as you are there but happy to hear you should have some time to catch your last peaceful bit of sleep before taking him home and getting over jet leg.
Lots of love, thoughts and prayers to you both!
