Approval recieved, tickets purchased!

Woah. I really started wondering if it would ever happen. I mean you just keep doing paperwork and waiting. Doing more paperwork and waiting. The process seems endless. I had read somewhere that you should start preparing even though it seems like it will never happen, and then BOOM it happens. That is so true!! I see it now! Its so hard to know how to think about having a child out there, that you have never met, and have no contact with. Its tempting to wonder if the process will really work. And here we are! We got our final travel approval on Monday and purchased tickets to China tonight! Mark, Caroline and I will travel to on Wed. Feb 9, and will most likely get Emma on Sun Feb 13. A valentines gift:)

We are very thankful!!
