I'm Leavin' on a Jet Plane...

Just a quick post here, but we're getting ready to drive (through the snow) to the cities (where it is also snowing). I'm just running on adrenaline. We went to bed at 11:30 last night, and I woke up at 4:30 and just couldn't get back into a good sleep. So at some point, I'm going to crash. We'll see how soon that comes. Hopefully I can sleep a little on the plane. I usually can't... Anyway, as far as I know we'll have internet access there and will do the best we can to keep you updated but more importantly post pictures!!! If you could pray for safe travels, no missed flights, no lost paperwork, and wisdom for the unexpected we'd appreciate it!

And for those like me that tend to overpack (which I may have done but tried real hard not to) I did mange to get all my clothes, the baby's clothes, a couple blankets, and gifts for the orphanage ALL into my 1 suitcase! I'm so proud of myself :). Our love to you all. :)

"Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you, and people in exchange for your life. Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west. I will say to the north, 'Give them up!' and to the south, 'Do not hold them back.' Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth--everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made."

--Isaiah 43:4-7

Praying for safe travels, fabulous fun and memories, and for instant bonding with Liv.

Oh, you should have told me you can't sleep on a plane before! Expert traveler that I am... Kinda too late now, but the trick to time zone adjustment and plane sleep is melatonin supplements from GNC. I wouldn't get them from out of the US, but they work like a charm!

Hi Guys! You're probably in the air somewhere and we're praying for a safe and wonderful trip! Can't wait to hear about meeting your daughter for the first time. Please post pictures! Put Cory and Cindy on camera duty. Sorry we missed your calls. Please call when you're home and somewhat settled! God be with you! Love, Andy, Dawn, Lily and Baby Becker
