Well, our tickets have been purchased and all that stands between us and our little guy is a few days and a really long plane ride.... actually the Great Wall and a few sites will have to be conquered as well.
We will be leaving Wichita on July 17th and flying into Beijing. At some point we will be meeting up with a few other families who are also adopting through our agency.
After a few days in Beijing to recover from jet leg and see the sites, we'll head to our boy's home town on Monday morning July 21st. We're told we'll have a couple of hours to settle in, and then we'll get him!!
Mark your calendars! Please keep us in your prayers, and check our blog for updates.

So, "Gotcha! Day" is July 21st officially. I HAVE A HUGE LUMP IN MY THROAT!!! Let's see, that will actually be July 20th for us, right? I won't sleep that night. It will be like going to bed on Christmas Eve but knowing my new grandson has been "Gotcha-ed!" when I wake up!

Your little starfish is adorable, can't wait to follow your journey. You must be busy getting ready to go, how exciting! I can hardly wait until I get to travel myself, hopefully by September. Praying for your travel and smooth transitions.
