Well, we made it home from Anacortes safely and Emma was an angel on the plane. I had even prayed for an empty seat next to me between Seattle and Cincinnati and lo and behold - there was one! It made ALL the difference in the trip. When we arrived home, we hit the ground running to get the house ready for daddy's homecoming! Yes, after 2 months at sea, daddy finally returned home last night. Although there were only a small number of people returning and there was not much accompanying fanfare, it was special for our family nonetheless. The only damper was that daddy decided NOT to shave his "cruisestache" before coming home so it was a little jarring to see him with some hair (OK a lot of hair) on his upper lip. Emma thought it was funny. Me...not so much.
This afternoon we all head to CHKD (Children's Hospital of the King's Daughers) to share Emma's story at their annual telethon. Although only our local news station carries it on TV, the telethon can be watched live online at http://www.wvec.com/. According to the informational letter we received in the mail, our family will be featured between 5 and 5:30PM eastern time. Whether it's for a few minutes or the entire half hour, we have no idea. But if you're interested, head to the website at that time and check us out!
Love and hugs,
Jen, Chris and Emma
