One day until we fly home!!

Well, the illness disappeared as quickly as it came, and the smiles are starting to return. There is still lots of adjusting going on, as Maya was used to playing with 6 & 7 year old boys(her foster brothers). She is doing ok, but very jealous of Hannah, and quite frequently lets Hannah know of her jealousy. I know that in time, all will be well-but I think it is a bit of a shock for Hannah to not have her little sister smiling and hugging all over her! We just keep reminding her that it is going to take some time, and that we are all adjusting, and will be for many months! Please pray for Hannah's understanding and patience, and Maya's heart to heal, and to accept all of us. I can't even begin to imagine what it will be like when we get home and she realizes that there are two more kids! Ha ha! Oh, what joy the Maslin household will be!! Hee hee!

Today is kind of a free day, as we are waiting for Maya's visa to be dropped off at 3:30 pm. So, we are hoping to go shopping, and to the zoo. It is the rainy season here, so it will be touch and go, as the weather changes at the drop of a hat! For example, Hannah and Bus were in the pool yesterday, when the largest bolt of lightening struck, very quickly followed by an ear shattering clash of thunder. Need I say , they quickly got out of the pool-Bus laughing, and Hannah shaking in fear!!

We are so excited to be coming home, and can hardly wait to see Caleb and Sofia, as we have missed them so much! We have had a great time, but the hotel room is getting boring!! We will be on our way tomorrow, though, and we are counting down the hours/seconds!

Here are a few photos we took yesterday!

Love, Sabra, Bus, Hannah & Maya Mishelle
