Final Wait

As of today, we are in the final wait for our daughter. We are now waiting on our travel approval (TA) from China. We expect this wait to be about 3-4 weeks. Once we receive the approval we will book flights and be on our way to China in about two weeks. We are still hoping to leave the US before the end of February. We will be in China for about three weeks. We are finally on the home stretch.

Please pray for Brooklyn as she will have some major changes coming in her life very soon. Often the children are moved from their foster homes to the orphanage before the families come to China. This helps them not to see the adoptive family as the person who took them from the only home they have known. Also pray for her family there as they have had Brooke in their lives for over five year.

Please pray for our last minute preparations as well. We will be booking our flights to China on fairly short notice so pray we can get them on the schedules we need and at a reasonable price. Also pray for us as we adapt to being a different family than we have been for the last eight years.
