The Long Awaited Phone Call

Can't believe I am just getting to the blog and posting what happened earlier this week......

TA People....TA!!!

Travel Approval!!  Oh Yeah!!  I'm loving those two words!

Bill and I will be leaving the first part of February to go get Hudson. 

My thoughts on Monday after I got the call ranged from....

Yaaaa Hoooo it's finally here!  (pure happiness) 

to...  Yikes...it's finally here!  (a little trepidation)

to...  Can't believe we will be holding him in less than a month!  (full/happy momma's heart)

to...  Yikes...maybe I should have packed a month ago like Sonia told me to!  (little panic)

to...  God, you are so good and faithful to have everything happen in your perfect timing.  (peace)

Now I'm back to a mild panic.

Our plans are to fly to Beijing and tour for a couple of days and then fly to Hudson's province.  (Guizhou)  We should be meeting our little guy on Monday February 6.

Psalm 68:5-6  Father to the fatherless and protector of the widows is God--He places the lonely in families.

  1. Two of the most awesomest letters in the alphabet! That moment when you first meet your child is absolutely surreal. Just remember to take it all in and go slow because it is precious. Enjoy China! It will forever change you!
