It's good to be home again. We just spent a week in Cincinnati. David's dad passed away last Monday, so we've been out there. He went into the hospital between Christmas and New Years. Sadly, he did not make it back out. At one point, we thought he was going to get better, but that was not the case.
He leaves behind 5 or 6 children - 16, 20 or 22 grandchildren (depending on who and how you count them) - and 2 great-grandchildren.
Leila is especially glad to be home. She has apparently decided that she has a home, a room, and a bed - and she likes it. She likes to go, but she likes coming home even more. She's a baby that needs a lot of sleep. While we were gone, she just did not get enough. Since we've been back, she's been sleeping 15-16 hours a day. Having enough sleep makes all the difference in the world with her.
As for the rest of us, it seems that the 2 1/2 weeks in China has cured us all of the travel bug for awhile.
We got a letter from Children's Hospital last week. Leila's surgery is scheduled for March 6. I don't know the time, but at least I do know a date now. (That's all we know, but at least we do know that much.)
We have our post-placement adoption visit with the social worker coming up on Feb. 20. We're also in the process of re-adopting her in the US now. And her baptism is going to be Feb 15. It's going to be a busy month.
