It arrived!

The long awaited TRAVEL APPROVAL arrived yesterday!  We found out today that our Consulate appt will be on June 22nd.  Our most recent tenative itinerary had us leaving on June 9th but that was if our appt was on June 20th so we will find out tomorrow when we will be leaving.  I'm hoping to not be away from our girls any longer than initially planned.  Either way we will be leaving SOON! 

We are taking this weekend to get away with the girls one last time before our trip - they've been wanting to go camping so we are going to do that for them.  I really can't fathom packing for another trip yet but it will be good for them!  China will be put on hold for a few days and then we will catch up on the many things to do next week!  I hope!

It's always neat to meet other families who have been on this journey and today I had the chance to talk with another mom from my daughters' school who has adopted twice from China and will be going again in June.  There's a good chance we will be there at the same time.  So even halfway around the world we may see people we know!  It's also neat to know that my son won't be the only one from China in his school - there are actually a bunch of adoptive families there!
