HOME!

It's good! :-)

Both flights were early. Immigration went long. Cupcake loved flying (except the seat belt thing).

In Houston, when we got to the sign that says "Immigrants - this way, U.S. Citizens - that way", it hit me. It really hit me. She's home! I started bawling. Two years of battle - now it's over bawling.

We had a group of close friends welcome us at the airport in St. Louis. I bawled - like a baby.

She is soundly asleep in her new bed. She acts like she feels right at home, here - like she always belonged here. Except, of course, that she is investigating EVERYTHING. :-)

I'm exhausted. And good. :-) Really good. :-D

Pictures, tomorrow, I hope.

Blessings to you,
Mamita
