We´ll be landing at MSP at 11:30 PM on Wednesday!!!! I am more than excited. It´ll be a looooooooong day, but we´ll be home. I´ll post the flight info tomorrow or Monday after I print my ticket. There is no printer hooked up to this machine.
Today was rather uneventful except that Nicholas decided not to like eating at both lunch and supper. He´s eaten both dishes before and liked them, but I guess today was different. Tonight supper got spit at me --made me a little upset. That hasn´t happened since my days at the nursing home. Hope this doesn´t mean rebellion is starting. He´s been pretty compliant up ´til now, so maybe it is. We had a good cuddle time before bed, though. It was nice to end on a positive note with lots of kisses. It sure is difficult to start training a child at 2 instead of birth. At birth it all is learned somewhat naturally as you start from day 1. With adopting an older child we have to do it differently and often times re-train what someone else has done. God grant me the patience and wisdom I need to jump this hurdle successfully.
I had something else to tell you, but can´t remember what it is. Tomorrow I guess.
Tomorrow Nicholas and I go to worship at the Lingo´s church for the last time :(. Brother Lingo asked me last night if we understood any of the service. What I find interesting (and told him) is that even though the service is in Spanish, God still speaks and we are able to figure out the message based on the scripture read. And we can sing the songs in English.
Well, I´m off. I´m not going to sleep, but maybe I´ll veg in front of the TV for a while... Sleep well everyone!!!

Nikkie, Congrats on the new Thayer and on the tickets!! You're almost home. What a great day that will be!! Your other boys will have a hard time sleeping between now and then! It's so great that you've been able to spend this time in Nico's native land so you can fill him in later in life. We can hardly wait to see you in church! We've missed your smiling face. Dawn
