...we will be at our hotel in Zhengzhou spending our last night as a family of five!! We received our letter from the Chinese government granting us permission to travel to our son's province to complete our adoption, and we leave on Sunday!! We are SO thankful that we were able to get the travel arrangements made so quickly. One of the major reasons why I am so thankful is that we have some dear friends who will be traveling at the same time, staying at our same hotel as they adopt their precious son! Six years ago these friends stayed at our house awaiting the birth of their first child, well before we were even thinking of starting our own family. Now six years later, as of next Monday there will be NINE children between our two families! What a sweet privilege it will be to welcome our sons into our families together!
We can't wait to share more stories of our time as we take our whole family on our trip to get Isaac! We arrive on Sunday, and then Monday morning we get Isaac! Tuesday is the day the adoption is finalized, which also happens to be Jeff's birthday. On Wednesday we will travel to the city Isaac has been living in to apply for his passport and visit the orphanage that he and David grew up in. We are also anticipating the opportunity to meet the foster family that Isaac and David had lived with for over 2 years!
Ok, I'm off to panic over more details that I'm just sure I'm going to miss!
