Well, we made it home. I will get LeAnn to put some pics up tonight or tomorrow. There was a delay in Atlanta due to weather, We were in the Atlanta airport for 5 hours, so close, yet so far. We finally got to Huntsville about 11:30 last night. We were all so excited to see each other we visited too long before going to baggage claim, there were no bags and no one at the Delta counter. Fortunately we found a lady who took us to where they had stored our luggage and we were able to get it before we left. The trip home went much better than I anticipated. Drew slept several hours. I did not even have to resort to the Benadryl, I assure you I had plenty, just in case. Even when he was not asleep his behavior was good. He got tired and fussy during the long delay in the Atlanta airport, but what do you expect coming off a 13 hour flight. I do not know who all was praying for us, there must have been a bunch of you. I, and the people around us appreciate it. Addie keeps wanting to know "What happened to his hand?" On the way home she asked if Drew could spend the night. She is still working on the concept of brother. She asked again today if he could spend the night tonight. While Addie and Drew were playing this a.m. Drew put his toy in the dogs water dish. I asked Addie if Drew had done that and she said "Yes, but it was an accident." Covering for him already. Ellyse is being a good big sister and Drew has taken to her well. We slept for about 4 hours last night and took a 2 hour nap this afternoon. We are tired but trying to hold out until regular bed time so we can get back on US time quicker. We will get pics up soon.

The photos are SO precious—the way Ellyse and Addie and looking at and holding onto Drew are truly cherished moments. And Addie asking if he could spend the night….priceless! You think children are prepared, and then they surprise you with something like that. I once heard of a new big brother asking during the evening of little sister’s first day home from the hospital: “When is this baby’ Mama gonna come and get her?”
