We got our visa last week, but since our original flights home were in just a few days, financially it didn't make sense to pay the change ticket fee for everybody to fly out early. My mom also flew in last week to help us out and travel home with us. It has been fun showing her around Majuro and it's really lovely that she got to meet the birth family as well.
Three other families flew in last week as well, to adopt. All of them also brought kids from home. We have gotten together several times. So much fun sharing this experience with others who are going through it too.
Last night we had a Yokwe Dinner. Our Marshallese family sang songs and gave us little gifts. There were a few tears shed, but mostly smiles and laughter. It was a beautiful time.
Now time to pack! Amazing how much stuff you can accumulate in such a short period of time!
