Flights are Booked!

Hello!!!!!!! It is real! We are REALLY going to CHINA! Just today I finalized our plans, and officially booked and paid for our flights. We leave Chicago on Sept 17 and land in Beijing on the 18th! On the eve of the 18th, we will meet our sweet Emily MengYan for the very first time! OMgosh! OMgosh! Somebody pinch me!

Here's a great new photo of the girls, to show you once again how cute they are! Margaret is on the left, their ayi (nanny) in the middle, and our sweet Em on the right. By the way.....I just learned today that Margaret's file has been listed on the shared WC list......which means she is officially available for adoption. Is God calling YOU to adopt? There is no greater blessing than being a mother, you know! I would LOVE to help this precious peanut find her forever family!
Thanks for checking in, we will post again soon!

  4. Yes, yes, YES...if any of you reading feel called to adopt, Margaret is an amazing girl! I have been her sponsor for the past year or so, have met her in Ch1na this summer, and have been praying so much that God would raise up an incredible Christian family to bring her home soon. I love her so very much...she is SUCH a precious little one!
