This has been a very emotional week...and our emotions have been everyone you could imagine. We've experienced joy, sorrow, fear, relief, panic, peace, love and everything else you can think of. It's been a long week and we are thrilled to be headed home tomorrow. We miss our boys, friend and family terribly but we have enjoyed this time with Tabbi to learn her and have her learn us. She's a sweet girl, full of life and energy and we are so excited to see what God has redeemed her to do in this world. I will say, for better or worse, she will fit in fine at the Fullington house because she has all the passion required to make the cut!
We have overcome even more obstacles in the last two days. Tabbi will now ride in a car facing forward rather than burying her head and hiding her face. She has learned to eat and chew cheerios and french fries and to feed herself with a spoon. She even had a bath tonight with very minimal fussing! She splashed, played with her toys and sat in the water. The trick, of course, was "Jesus Loves me".....why I didn't think to include Him from the beginning, I have no idea.
My brain is scattered and my body is tired. I am both excited and anxious to start our long journey home. Thank you for all of your love, support and prayers. Please remember us as you lay down tonight because that is about the time we will be heading to the airport. Please pray for our safety as well as Tabitha's patience and cooperation with the long trip. We are so excited to see everyone of you just as soon as we can!
