Praising... and ready to catch the next flight to Addis

Thank you for your prayers!  The diagnosis on Friday's additional information is positive.  I am breathing easier.  Poor baby though, between the earlier issue and the latest issue today, Bella is having a tough time of it. 

I just broke down and asked Jon if we could blow our budget and fly to Ethiopia next week to spend a few days loving on her.  Unfortunately, he doesn't think he can take a week off work even now, and I think I would feel guilty leaving him home for an unnecessary trip.  Maybe. 

My emotions are drowning out my rational side, shouting throw caution to the wind and GO!  Hold her, hug her, kiss her, comfort her, change her diaper, hear her cry, make her laugh, watch her sleep...  If my emotions keep this up, I may be ready to blow the budget by myself in another 24 hours (sorry Jon!).  :)
