Try, Try Again

My husband and I both believe things happen for a reason. You may not know what it is until later, but you usually figure it out. He was delayed yesterday and ended up back home (see last blog post for details). Shortly after he got home, we got a breaking CNN news alert on our blackberry's, there was a security breach at Newark Airport. Everyone was cleared from the Continental terminal, and rescreened, planes were delayed or cancelled, and this lasted all night. My husband, had he been able to get there, on his Continental flight, probably would have been stuck there all night. So we were grateful he was safe and sound at home instead. But has he made it to England yet? Not quite. He has made it to Newark, but he has been delayed there. They are still backed up from the event last night. Right now he is still scheduled to go out tonight, but not until really late. I hope he makes it out and has a safe flight, and finally gets there. As we were talking a little bit ago, we both were hoping that these kind of delays do not happen when we all go together and have the kids with us --I am nervous enough about flying overseas with them, let alone dealing with travel delays like the one he has encountered. Praying for a safe trip for him, we miss him already.
