The car is picking us up at 8am and then we are off to the airport. I cannot wait until we leave the driveway and we can leave our to-do list behind. :)
Our flight leaves at noon and we will arrive in Shanghai at 4pm Shanghai-time. Right now, China is ahead 13 hours, which means that we will arrive on Wednesday afternoon.
I have a million profound things to say -- about meeting Ailee and about going back to visit Maelyn's orphanage and foster home. But -- this Mama is very tired and needs to get to bed. Hopefully, I will have time to get those thoughts down once we arrive and have a bit of down time.
Next post from Shanghai! See you soon!
(Thank you to my wonderful friend, Lianne, who will be posting for me while be are away. You are the best!)
