coming out of the fog and random bits

We are finally comming out of the flu fog. Everyone in the house with the exception of mom have been seriously draggin. We are still awaiting our consulate appointment so there is no itinerary to report but we are still planing to leave next friday.

I find myself experiencing a huge array of emotions these last few days. i am nervous about leaving the big kids for so long. i know that they are in the best possible hands but the process of putting all the important papers in one place so they can be found easily were something were to happen, we'll its a little sobering.
i love these kids so much and they have brought me more joy then i ever thought possible. i have also been very sad for Ellie and for all of the changes that are about to come her way. i know that ultimately she is getting a better life complete with siblings,dogs and frogs. but in the short term she is loosing EVERYTHING that she has ever known. driving in the car today i found myself crying for her losses and wishing there was an easier way for her to have come home to her family.
