Off to China we go!!!!

Well it's been a whirlwind and I can't believe we are leaving for the airport in 2 hours. It does not feel real yet. I've been trying to tie up all the loose ends around here and things are finally coming together well. I'm about to jump in the shower and then put the final things in my suitcase and off we go. Kev is packed, emery is packed and I am 90% there.

I'm nervous, excited, restless, worried all in one. We know emery Was moved last week from the foster home and is now in the orphanage waiting for us. My online friend melissa just got her adorable
Son Callen on monday and had an orphanage tour on Tuesday. In one of the rooms she said she saw the most beautiful little girl. She asked how old
She was and they said about a year and that this cutie was being adopted next week. All of a Sudden Melissa figured out that was emery and she
Begged them I let her take a picture of her but they said no. She said emery looks wonderful and is being well cared for. That just made my week and
Gave me what I needed for this final push. I just can't believe we will have her in just a few short days.

The kids are ready and they are in expert grandparent hands while we are gone. My mom and dad have week patrol and Kevin's parents have weekend patrol. Schedule is listed on the fridge and activities are planned. We are ready to go but my heart is holding me back knowing we are leaving the kids for 2 weeks. I'm just nervous about all of this but I know everything will be fine.

Ok, so my necklace is ready with emery picture and suitcases ready-- so next post will be china. Stay tuned and we will for sure post video and pics soon!!!!
