Hi All,

Just wanted to add to Tanner's summary of the day. Ricky is calling us Mom and Dad and it is music to our ears!!!

Tell Boo, I am more tired than ever, but a very happy tired.

Pray for Ricky as he has a slight cold. We will pick up some medicine in a few minutes and hopefully that will help.

Going to the mall,
Steph

Oh, how I can't wait to hug Ricky's neck. What a wonderful way to wake up this morning and start my day. Reading about the reunion gives me chills. I love how he is calling you Mom and Dad. Pretty powerful and precious!! Give him a hug from me and tell him that our family can't wait to see him. Hayes said, "I love him all the way to God." Cameron encourages Ricky to get really good at Mario (nintendo ds)so they can battle it out and play together. Can't wait for Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mission Accomplished. Thank God.
We couldn't wait until this morning to see what took place.

Austin had me turn the computer off last night so it took a few minutes. It reminded me of the excitment felt as a child on Christmas morning but better!!!

Madison wanted me to remind you to charge Ricky's DS before returning because the battery will be out.
She thinks of everything. If the light turns red he needs to recharge it right then.

Austin, Maddie, Richard and I are just so excited. We are running on schedule and that is something right. I have to go so I can fix them breakfast but I can't seem to do anything but sit here and reread all the info.

Try to get a little rest, love on Ricky for us and we'll see you on Saturday. Don't forget to write.

Love, Hugs and Kisses

We are so happy for y'all. I have tears in my eyes as I read each entry. Your experiences with the toilets were much like mine in Hong Kong years ago. Praise God that you finally have Ricky!!! Thanks for posting the blog too, so I can keep in touch even in Kentucky! love, mandy (Brad's Sister)
