Everyone who knows my family well has to chuckle a little at the world traveling that Erica and I are signing up for. Erica was the four year old who would run down the street after my parents car when they'd leave us with a sitter for only a few hours. And I was the 6th grader who cried for nearly 5 months BEFORE 6th grade camp at the thought of leaving home for a whole 5 days! We've come a long way since then but the thought of not seeing each other for an extended period of time is still very hard.
Erica already loves her little niece and is so sad that she wont be able to be here for her homecoming. In the car ride home James and I were saying how strange it is that the next time we see Erica we'll be standing at the airport with little Ava who will proudly be holding a "Welcome Home Auntie" sign.
In Ava news, we are holding our breathe, waiting for any news from the Regional Court. We are in prayer still that we'd hear great news but are prepared to begin the process again if that is the news we get. Of course we will post as soon as we hear anything.
Here are some pictures from Erica's send off today:
My Dad, our family photographer, and a picture of the 5 of us.

My Cousin lives in Pasadena and he came to send Erica off as well. James and I will miss our sis so very much. Love you!!!!!!
