Well, we arrived in Addis after a long and sleepless flight. My smile has faded a bit, I must admit. J We got a “suite” this time at the Riviera thinking it would be nice to have two rooms when it comes to putting Mekdes down for nap/bed. Sadly, there is no hot water or showerhead and there is no internet connection. No matter really because tomorrow is the big day...it is what is known in the adoption community as “gotcha day”. At 1:30pm we will ride the bus into the Hannah’s Hope compound, open the sliding door of the van and look for our Mekdes. Will she be happy to see us? Will she be willing the leave the orphanage with us? How will she do at the hotel? My head hurts there are so many unanswered questions, but I am sticking with the mantra, it will all work out. We are traveling with other families on this trip, so that will be different for Shawn and me.
