Wheee! The fun just keeps rolling on! These are the days to savor, especially that special bonding time in China. You never get that back so enjoy every moment of it.
I'm so excited for you, and will be glued to your blog to find out whats happening all the time!!! Hannah is such a lucky little girl to be coming into such a loving home.
9 days!!! 9 days!!! That is crazy! It seems like just last year I started to follow your blog. I have no idea how I found your blog but it does not matter. I am so proud to call you my blogger friend. You are probably one of the most deserving people I have every met. You are such a sweet person that seems to just LOVE life.
While in China, please soak it all in. Take LOTS of pictures. Enjoy to sites, smells, and the people. I hope that you fall in love with China as so many before you have. Bring a journal and write down your thoughts, the most private ones, and then share them with your baby one day. Have the guides all write messages to Hannah in both English and Chinese and also share them with her one day. Again, soak it all in try to "bring" China back home to share with Hannah. Her future thoughts about China wil depend on how you feel about it and the stories you tell.
While gone, know you will be in the thoughts and prayers of hundreds. You have touched so many lives by just being you.
NINE more days - can't believe it - it's getting so close - these single digit days fly by so hold on before you know it - you'll be in the air and on your way to holding Hannah!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!
Single Mommy to the most amazing baby girl in the entire world! We were blessed to be brought together through the miracle of adoption. My file was logged in China on March 23, 2006 and life changed forever in a wonderful, amazing way when Hannah was placed in my arms in Hunan, China on Monday, November 2, 2009!!! This site is created to welcome family and friends to follow along with our family's fun and adventures.
'The LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.'
Psalm 118: 23
Sometimes I think the time has DRAGGED by for you waiting to travel and other times I can't believe it is only NINE more days!
