Twas the Night Before China and all through the house, not a creature was stirring not even my spouse. He had everything buttoned up at 4pm. Suitcases were packed and our gifts wrapped with care....
Ok well then, I have been running around like crazy but thanks to my sensible husband we were packed up nicely by the afternoon. I even had a chance to secure some Polly Pockets for Aoli and some pack-rat food to take with me on the plane.
I should say that my husband did nearly made me CRAZY this morning with last minute total panic and melt-down behavior. I was wishing I were going to China sans husband like Tina (and he was too). Fortunately I had an appointment with the school ELL person (which was sooo good and encouraging) that by the time I got home he had worked himself out of it by knocking some manly things off his to do list (like hanging blinds and assembling furniture) and I was in a great mood after settling things away at school.
Please do send us your best wishes and prayers tomorrow and for the next 2.5 weeks of travel. I will try to update you as best I can.
