Travel Time!!

It is almost time for us to go to LA to meet our Intended Parents!! We leave tomorrow night and will stay closer to the airport, then Friday is our big day! I am excited for us to have a kid free night before we go! Yea for jacuzzi suites! I am getting more nervous about meeting the IP's. What if they travel from the other side of the world and hate me? I worry that they won't like me wanting to work out during the pregnancy, or that I want to wait until after my 5K to get pregnant. They have been waiting so long already!! I am trying to trust God that these are the parents I am supposed to carry for and that everything will work out, but it is hard not to have doubts!
   I am trying to get everything in order for our trip.There is so much to do! I am making a schedule for my mom for the kids and their activities and then I have my dogs to consider as well. They have their own schedule and routine! I owe my mom big! Our plane leaves Sacramento at 9 am and we won't return until 9 pm. Then 2+ hours of driving home! It will be worth it though. I have such a strong feeling that this is the couple for us!
   I keep hearing horror stories from other surros about their IP's but I am confident that these people will be wonderful! I keep reading their profile over and over and think I have a good feel for who they are and they immense support they will have to bring their baby home to. I will not be disclosing any information about the parents so that their confidentiality is up held, but I hope that  you all would hold us in your thoughts and prayers that we have safe travel and that it is a good fit and instant connection! I hope to have good news to report upon our return!  
   It has been really hard to keep up with school through this process. I am so distracted by nerves, doubts and anticipation that I struggle to stay on task and pay attention. I hope that I will focus better once I am officially matched! I know that there will be new issues that arise with becoming pregnant and then the pregnancy myself, but I think that knowing that I have people who have my back and are rooting for things to go well will help! This week has been especially hard. As I am trying to get everything in line, I am preparing a presentation (on self care of all things! LOL) and trying to think about 2 papers that are due soon. There is so much to do! I cannot wait for spring break in a couple of weeks!
   Here's to a great match meeting and a smooth journey ahead of us!
