Headed to Branson

We are headed for Branson, MO this weekend for a reunion with other AWAA families that have or are in the process of adopting from Africa. So excited to meet these families that have shared this journey with us. Not excited about the loooooong drive. We are going to leave after Ron gets done with work today and drive down to Sioux Falls spend the night and then tackle the remaining miles in the AM.

Molly LOVES school. She actually is upset that she will miss school tomorrow because of our trip. She also doesn't understand why there is no school on holidays (Labor Day). Today is picture day and I was able to talk her into wearing an outfit that I liked (she is very head strong). She has been getting up early everyday to do her hair (very particular about her hair) but this morning Ron woke her up at the she has been requesting and she said "No not 7". I have no idea how she knew it wasn't 7 because she has no clock in her room. She finally got up, got dressed came down with her hair a complete mess. What is she thinking...this is picture day. I took her back upstairs and put a ton of conditioner in her hair and combed it out. She then decided that she would take over and fix it the way she wanted. She wears her hair so many different ways and she always looks like million bucks. Today's hairstyle was different than any that I've seen her in before...not sure it is my favorite but she seemed to like it.

OK that's all I have time for...many things to get done before we leave. Hope you all have a great holiday weekend.

Blessings,

Bliss
