This morning at 5:45am, just as my alarm was going off so I could go get Cori and Vaughn, the phone rang. As I stumbled down the long hallway to get to it and say hello I heard "Sara? Their plane got in an hour early...they are at the airport right now waiting." Thinking it was a bad dream of some sort I said "Um, ok...I'm on my way..." Then when I hung up the phone, I realized that this was real. I really was awake standing in my living room and that phone call had just happened. So I brushed my teeth (I hate dirty teeth!), found my glasses and sweatshirt (it's a wee bit chilly in the mornings before the sun comes up...probably 70F), and headed out the door. There was little traffic, which I was thankful for. :) I got there and there they were, on the curb waiting for me. :)

So Cori is now home and I couldn't be more excited!! She brought me lots of stuff which is just an extra bonus. She laughed at my sweatpants because the bottoms are covered with dirt because of the dirty floors because of the sand/dirt that blows in...and said, "Everything in America is so clean..." :) So I guess that is something to get prepared for in going home in 2 months from tomorrow! Cleanliness!!

I also realized yesterday that everytime I walk into a room or especially a bathroom, I look around on the floor to see if there are cockroaches...two years in Africa and I'm still horrified by these horrible creatures. It will be nice when I get home to not have to scan the floor before walking into a room. :)

CORI'S HOME!!! :)
