Flight Delayed

We were up by 6am and rushed all around so we would be fed and packed by 7:45. Came down to the lobby to use internet and found out our flight is delayed 3 1/2 hours!!! So frustrating!!!! Thank God the hotel let us stay a little longer and our driver said he would come back for us. We will have to give him an extra tip. I feel like we are ruining his sunday. The thought of hanging around the Moscow airport for 6-7 hours with a one year old was very worrisome. Grace doesn't fall asleep very easily outside of the crib. We headed back to the park to kill some time. Grace went on the slide and see saw! She loved it!

I'm worried about further delays. I really want to make it home today and see my boys. We'll get there! Happy Mother's Day!!!

Dear Mom and Dad,

I hope you had a great time in Russia. I hope I don't faint when I meet Grace. I'm going to be so happy when I see her in person.

Love,
Aidan

P.S. Aunt Denise thinks you should teach Aidan to sleep in like Nate does.

I've been thinking about you all day - how did Grace do on the the flight?? Were you on Delta? I'm dreading it! Happy Mother's Day - we share a special bond.

I was away since Friday morning. I can't believe that they processed things so quickly for you. I thought it was standard procedure (no matter what) to stay the 5 working days. I always knew they could do things faster if they wanted. Five days seemed too long for the last trip. There was a lot of down time during that period. Congratulations on getting home earlier. Can't wait to hear about your flight and Grace's first introduction to the boys.
