Hi All…

This has been ROUGH…. we flew into Frankfurt Germany at 3ish this morning and were scheduled to leave around 6am but our flight to Chicago was canceled (they said the plane never showed up)…it is now 2:30 pm and we are planning on boarding a plane to NYC at 5pm.

Once we arrive in NYC we have 1 hour to get through customs to make our connecting flight to Tampa….if we don’t make it we will spend the night in New York and fly out the next day.  If we do make it we will arrive LATE- I will send an email with our arrival time IF we make our Tampa flight.

We are SO SAD that we will probably not see a lot of you with the change of arrival time- nonetheless- we REJOICE that we are all together and will very SOON be HOME for good!

Please keep us in your prayers for this final stretch. I haven’t slept (Elijah had some GI issues on 1st flight) andthe GI issues have continued all day- he has gone through ALL of his clothes that I brought and I didn’t think to pack extra pants for me in case of any accidents…this is part of parenthood I guess! What an initiation for us!

We will TRY to keep you posted!

Gerrid, Jessica, & Elijah
