New month and finally tomorrow Emanuel and I leave for South Carolina. I think once I get on that first plane I will be ALOT less nervous. Right now there are so many things to worry about – customs, the metal detectors (I have to put Emanuel’s stroller on the belt – fun fun), getting help when I need it and then the big unknown – how is Emanuel going to deal with flying?
I called the airline yesterday to confirm my flights and ask my final questions. I asked about getting help with my luggage as I have to juggle baby AND luggage and the woman I talked to said that it would depend on the number of staff available … ugh. So hopefully I can figure out a way to do this with the least amount of stress. Although I am glad to be going a part of me wishes Ken could come too. I am just going to hope for the best. After all Emanuel is a very sweet little man and he may just be very excited to be in a new place and be a little angel.
I do wish the twins were able to talk so we could talk about my going away for so long. I have to say goodbye tonight since Ken takes us to the airport at 5am. They are going to be spoiled rotten though – not only my mom but Ken’s folks are all going to be here just for them!
Ken and I packed last night and I am still not so sure that I should not be taking a larger suitcase to give me more space to take stuff back… he says the two I have have more than enough room but I am big on space so I may just have to do some re-packing… It is amazing how much space Emanuel’s stuff takes!
I hope to get online to add an entry here and there but no promises. See you all back in Canada on the 12th!
