And they're off....

Gerben and Emma left the house at 9:45 this morning. They caught their plane on time and are heading first to San Francisco. I am sure everything will go well with that flight. They then have a 6 hour lay-over before they board the plane again for a 13 hour flight to Auckland, New Zealand. I believe they leave San Francisco around midnight our time so Emma should be very tired and hopefully sleep for a good portion of the next leg of the journey. I hope they have a fantastic visit in Australia. I miss them already! It sure seems weird with only 1 child to drag around. So far she doesn't seem to have noticed that Emma isn't here. I am sure that will come.
