Prayers are being sent your way.
ReplyDeleteThis made me cry! You all are in my prayers!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh that totally stinks. I hope your flight gets out of there okay. Hopefully everyone will sleep the whole flight and not just be grumpy as all get out.
ReplyDeleteOh Stewarts! That's way crappier than just getting stuck overnight! I hope you have a smooth flight and somewhere to sleep in Argentina!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Lisa! Since we haven't been updated, I hope that means you have made it to your destination safely....isn't this world traveling so glamourous? Can't wait to hear how your "settling in" goes!
ReplyDeleteIsn't moving overseas SO much fun?!?! Make sure you get . . . something really good on the other end to celebrate this . . . memorable experience :)
