In 4 hours I leave work.
In 6 hours I will have taken my cute puppy to the vet to be boarded.
Then I go home and repack everything.
In 24 hours I will be on a plane.
In 48 hours I will be in Russia.
Within 1 week Alexander Matthew Davis will be my official son.
Wihtin 2 weeks and 4 hours, if all goes well, we will be back home with him, for the rest of our lives.

I have a ton of work to do.
I must get my job ready for my absence.
I must make sure I have everything set for my trip.
I must make sure I have everything set for him when he gets to his new home.

I can't think.
My mind jumps between exhilaration and Panic.
My body wants to leap and run and find somewhere to sleep.

I doubt I will be on much after I leave work, so if I have to run and don't get to say it, thanks for all your best wishes and prayers.
