They're ours!!!

I just looked at my boys' new birth certificates, that list me as mom and my hubby as dad.  Wow.  We passed court last week (found out this morning) and hope to travel (me alone) Aug 13.

I'm in shock, I"m excited, I'm scared and terrified, and  I'm jumping up and down for joy.  The mix of emotions is incredible. It wasn't like this with Zacky.  I mean I was excited, but there was some holding back because he wasn't officially ours until he was 18 mos old, after being with us that whole time.  I was always afraid of losing him.  This time it's already official and it's a done deal.

I've never traveled out of country, and to do this alone scares me and yet I'm really excited, too.  I can't wait to see other parts of the world.  I'm scared I'll get sick while I'm there and be unable to care for them, I think that's my biggest fear.  Well, my second biggest fear, my first biggest fear is finances, since the airline prices jumped up so high it's over $1000 more than what we had planned and saved.  Crap!  I need to raise $1000 in 3 weeks!!!  Can't borrow it... don't know anyone who has an extra $1K and our credit sucks...

No sleeping for me the next few days!  And I need to shop for clothes!

Don't worry about traveling alone. I felt safe the entire time I was there. Just be careful about what you eat, and don't drink the water, or brush your teeth with it!
