The Countdown's On................

What a frenzy of activity we’ve had in this house since last Thursday. We found out on Tuesday, April 4th we had our travel approval. We had our paper work meeting on Wednesday night and found out Thursday morning that our consulate appointment was on April 26th!!!!!!!!! That means we leave next FRIDAY morning at 6 a.m. Paul spent all day Thursday making travel arrangements for our group of fourteen!! Now that the plans are set we have to start a “Packing Palooza”! Thanks so much to my many cyber friends who have given great advice about what to pack. It has helped so much in our shopping adventures. We are flying to Beijing first for a few days of touring. Then we’re off to Changsha, where we will get Clara Beth on Wednesday, April 18th!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are so excited, we can hardly wait! Since we are traveling during the Trade Fair we won’t be able to stay at the White Swan. We told our agency we didn’t care, to just get us there before May. After much prayer, we found out it was possible. We’ll be home on April 28th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, there’s so much to do! You would think after two years we would be ready!!!!! Here’s a picture of our happy travel group holding pictures of our sweet babies. In just TEN days we’ll be holding the real thing in our arms. It’s still so hard to believe that it is so close. Please pray for safe travel for all of us. You can follow along on this blog after we arrive. Until next time…..
