After Adam gets off work tomorrow morning, he’s taking up the photo albums and the “one toy each” we got them up to the agency to be shipped out on Friday.  The kids should get them next week.  Thank you for the suggestions.  We got him a matchbox car with it’s own case.  You open the case and it’s a ramp and road, etc.  For her we got a doll with some outfits and accessories inside a little purse.  I had gotten the advice from someone who was over there to get something that they can put away in a case.  I read the travel guide and we can write a letter to the kids, so we wrote them both a letter saying we can’t wait to meet them and bring them home, and some other stuff that will make you cry if I share, and stuck that in the photo albums.

Today, I called a parochial school and they are sending us information.  Yesterday we called the public school district and they are sending us information.  If first impressions mean anything, we are leaning towards public schools depending on how well the kids do adjusting and bonding this summer. 

Adam called a couple of travel agents and was a little shocked at the rates. They were about where I thought they would be.  I think our dream of flying first class is shot.  ;-)

About the boosters, with our luck we won’t get to switching them out,
so it’s best we each have a set - and I checked and we can get just the plain boosters. They don’t cost much, and I have
friends who have offered theirs.

Speaking of which, some of you have told me you have stuff that will
help. While we really, really appreciate any help we get, or items we
can get, please don’t be offended or take it personally if Adam or I forget you told us. We
are good to remember what each of us did an hour ago. We’re both in
information-overload right now - getting the travel information from the agency today didn’t help with that.  Yowsers!

Thank you for your patience (and support and prayers).
