Our time in the states is coming to an end. We have received the needed paperwork to apply for our visas and expect to receive our passports with new visas in about a week. We hope to fly back about a week after that - so we're looking at about 2 more weeks. We have already said our tearful goodbyes to my family in Austin and are in Sulphur Springs with Micah's family for the remainder of our time.
Our time back has been really good. We have gotten to do a lot, see a lot of people and just enjoy our families! Unfortunately there are people we didn't get to see and we're sorry for that! It's harder than we thought to transport kids for hours on the road and figure out where to stay, etc.
I hope to post some pictures highlighting our time back but it may take some time :)
We are looking forward to returning to our home in East Asia and reuniting with all our friends there!
Both boys are doing well - Mason is actually sick right now but on the mend. I'm thankful we're still here so we can easily get to doctors and get reliable medicine. But otherwise, it's fun to see how they've both grown and changed in the six months that we've been here. I'm curious to see how they will react to new surroundings when we go back. Reister remembers our home there, but I'm not sure Mason will.
Now it's time to enjoy the beautiful Spring day - blue skies and lots of green grass around here! We can't take that for granted because we definitely won't have that when we get back to Asia!
