We are going to China

I can hardly wait to bring our daughter home! We have loved her from afar, and now I get to love her up close. I get to know everything about her–even the things that will be hard for a mother to hear. I get to take care of her and love her like she’s never been loved before. Laugh with her and cry with her. Teach her everything she needs to know to be happy in life. I get to see her playing and learning and loving and growing with her family. I get to show her how much she is loved and wanted and needed. I get to show her that we are her family–now and forever.

We are set to travel Monday, January 3rd and returning on Sunday, January 23rd. This is a little longer than we thought but God has a plan. Now it is off to packing, planning, and praising God for this great gift.

WE GOT OUR TA!!!!

We got our TA (Travel Approval) today. After what has seemed like 100 years we are finally headed to China. We got the call today and they said we could join the January group.  Hooray!!! Our agency is trying to get our Consulate Appointment and then we will be able to make our flight arrangements.

Please join us in praying we will get to use some frequent flyer miles and get on the flight that are needed.

We will keep you updated.

Blessings,

Shelly
