His flight did not get in until late so we did not get home last night until around 2:00 a.m.!
The airport in New Jersey said if we did not go to get him in Chicago, he would be "on his own" in that airport overnight. Can you imagine leaving a 16 year-old foreign kid in that situation? I just about passed out when i heard that!! Poor kid. I think he will love it here, though.
