Thur 11/13 - Packing to Travel Home

The Packing our bags to travel home was the only thing planned for today. How do you help a five year old understand that yes we are going to get on an airplane and go home but not for several hours yet. Multiple times he has put his backpack on and spread his arms like he is flying. He has the concept that we are going to get on a plane....but doesn't understand that we are not leaving for several hours yet. So please pray for patience for each of us on these last couple of days of our journey to bring our dear son home. We leave our hotel at 9:30 pm and arrive in Indy on Friday afternoon.

A not-so-happy boy putting his backpack on.....again.
