ryan called, and we were able to talk for a few minutes. it was nice being able to talk to him one last time before he leaves the country. he and ori spent about an hour with some of our relatives, who were meeting harrison for the first time. kirk, my dad’s cousin, called my mom to tell her that ryan and ori had gone through security and mentioned what a sweet, nice, good kid harry is. he really is. he’s awesome. i’m glad they all got to spend some time together. it was the first time my mom’s mom has met her newest great-grandchild.

now, they’re settled on the plane, which is supposed to take off in 13 minutes. they got upgraded to economy plus, which i’m guessing is between economy and first class, and have enough room for them to put the bassinet the airline provided for harry on the floor in front of them. ryan says harry did really well on the first leg of the trip, which was the first time he’s been on a plane, so i hope the second leg goes just as well. ryan and ori could use the sleep. 🙂
