At The Airport

Greetings from Gate M13 at O'Hare! Chip and I got here safely and are now staring out the windows at the Asiana Air plane that will soon take us to Seoul -- and to our son.

We enjoyed dinner tonight in Wauwatosa at the Merritt's house, and by a stroke of good fortune, every one of my three sisters was visiting from out of town, which meant that my entire immediate family was able to see us off. (Not a dry eye in the house.) Jane and Caroline and Mookie will be in good hands, traveling back and forth between Wauwatosa and Madison with their Grammie.

We've had a lot of time to get ready for this trip, but nothing quite prepares you for the feeling you get when you park your car in the O'Hare lot and think to yourself, "My God, next time we get in this car, our little baby boy will be with us."

Owen, here we come!

Safe travels! Bring O, and yourselves, home safely. Enjoy every minute in Seoul and with O. His family is (not so) patiently awaiting his arrival in the US. Love to you all, -B
