The most important dates -
Gotcha day - will probably take place around 11pm your time on Sunday night. We are anticipating a tough transition for Caleb so you probably won't get an update until Monday morning. Please be in prayer for our little guy. His world is about to turn upside down yet again and we are praying that God will ease his fears and give us wisdom.

Arriving home - we will have to go through customs and immigration so that will probably take us awhile. I wouldn't anticipate seeing our dragging rears, I mean our smiling faces right away.

Thanks again for all your prayers. We covet them and cling to them!

Dan and I will be praying for all of the Weikels. We pray safe travel for Ken and Melissa, for good health and no anxiety for the children and caretakers at home in Maryland, and for peace and a smooth transition for Caleb. If only Caleb could know and understand all that God has in store for him. God bless, my friends.
