We are leaving in the morning for China! Again! I think I am packed now and my suitcase is still 3 pounds overweight. So if I forgot to pack something, it doesn't matter, there's no room anyway. We will fly from home to Atlanta then on to Seoul and then to Beijing. We will stay overnight in Beijing before taking the train to Jinan. And then that very afternoon, which somehow ends up being Sunday, we will see Tate.
Like any expectant mommy, I'm dreading labor. For me that will be the plane ride from Atlanta to Seoul. And it will be back labor after being cramped in that tiny space in coach. Mostly though, I'm thinking about my baby. I'm wondering how he will handle leaving the only home he has ever known to go with me, a strange looking white woman. I know he will be afraid. Will he cry? Will he shut down? Will he reject me? So far each one of my little ones have come to me easily but with their own way of coping. Tabitha clung to me tightly, Tobianna ran around like a wild monkey, and Teegan had a few temper tantrums, nothing major for me to deal with. I pray that Tate has an easy adjustment and is not too afraid. I can't believe I will see him in just a few hours.
Keep tuned....
