Still waiting

Well it is Sunday morning and we are all waiting for Mom and Mattea to get home. It hard to tell who is more homesick anymore the kids for mom or mom for the kids. Me I am dealing with a cold or something so I am getting nothing done that I wanted to and am running out of time to get the house somewhat picked up before the new one gets here and moves everything all over the place with the help of her other two siblings Esturado and Onnolee as they will help Mattea to learn how to wreck the house and hide things all over the place.
As it stands today with luck they will be home by Saturday but that all depends on when the passport gets to Odessa and how long the US Embassy paper work takes and if the flight home is there or if she has to find another way home. Just some of the fun of adopting from another country and what has to be done.
We are on the downhill side of all this and it seems good to be at this point but we are getting anxious for it to be over. We have so much to do when Mattea gets here as it looks like she will need several operations to fix things and then we can really start moving forward and then the fun begins I hope.
We are really sure that Mattea was waiting for us to find her and bring her home. It is very strange the way things happen and what happens and we know that it is all for some reaason that the kids who came to our home have come and sometimes it is to help us grow sometimes for both the child and us to grow. Life is a journey and we are sure having a really varied trip.
Love you Lou and Mattea and get home soon
