TA and firm dates

We received our TA yesterday and today managed to get flights booked.

We have hotel for Beijing and Guangzhou booked too.    The agency will take care of the rest of the in country details for us next week.

So glad to have this part done and to know when we are leaving and when we will meet our daughter.

This evening I was told that the care givers are telling her that we are coming soon and preparing her for us.    I can not imagine how hard it will be for her to leave the only life she has known for 6 years behind.  To leave her friends, the place where she has lived, the sounds, the smells, the language, everything will be so different for her.

We are so ready to get over there and get her home.    We will be several more weeks before we can head that way.   Flights were very expensive and we had to look for the most affordable time to go. 

We will update you as things get closer.

We are thankful to be at this point and appreciate all the prayers and support we have received. 

another step done

As of today we are Article 5.  We should have travel dates in the next couple of weeks.  We are ready to get this moving and go get Hannah. 

Stay tuned it is about to get exciting.
