With any Big Plans, there is always one thing that always hits a glitch. Today, I realized that I might not receive my passport back from the South African Embassy in time to travel Tuesday morning. My kids were curious as to why Mom was stressing out. I tried to casually explain this to my kids as we were driving from one appointment to the next. "I have spent a year working on this process, and never realized that they needed my passport to post the visa. If they don't mail it back to me today, we can't travel on Tuesday." Lorne responds, "So my passport won't be ready in time?" "No," I explained and laughed awkwardly, "MY passport won't be ready."
He thought about this for a minute. "They can let us fly as unaccompanied minors, right..?"
Yes, my kids are ready to go.
And so is my passport! Thank you David Singh, South African Embassy.
Adelaide: As Van Morrison said " Didn't I come to give you a sense of wonder. Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright. Didn't I come to give you a sense of wonder in the flame." Well you have, and you are. Thank you for sharing your journey.
