Reality setting in. T-1 day

We have less than 24 hours to go. Our flight leaves from Grand Rapids tomorrow morning at 7am. Then our Shanghai flight leaves at 1055 out of Chicago. We had breakfast with old high school friends and said good bye to the extended family and now we are with Mom, Dad, Grandma and the nieces. Relatively quiet day of packing and reorganizing our gear. Trying to make sure we have dotted our i's, etc...but knowing that we haven't. I don't know what kind of mental condition I have that I have kept reality at bay (maybe alcoholism) - but starting to get a little more nervous leaving everyone - and the dogs. We see the family a couple times a year, so that will be hard enough to maybe go for one visit a year...but the dogs. Guilt, guilt, guilt. I told them to give them lots of treats and take them on walks. Hopefully both the dogs and my depression will be short lived. I have tons of things to do and organize once we get there, not to mention relax! Will seems to be suprisingly calm - or is faking it well for my sake (which is fine by me). After changing tickets to get an earlier flight out of Grand Rapids (to ensure we have plenty of time in Chicago), my Dad still offered to get up at the crack of dawn to get us there. FYI - here is a copy of my sister with Lilly Rose - who is doing fabulous!
