Departure time

is coming soon.....about a day and a half away. There are so mnay things left to do and I have no idea where to start.

The suitcases are packed, the gifts bought and packed, money is new and ready to go. I have our handy red adoption binder ready to go.

I wish there was room in the suitcases for a few stow aways...I would be the first!!

My emotions are all over the place. I really want to be there, in China with Kerry. I am going to miss Rachel's adoption day, and meeting the director and the visit to the orphanage.

I keep reminding myself that I have a life time with her, but there is a little part of me that is sad.

Anyway, to keep the little and the bigs busy and to get out of the house we headed to the local town center for some cooling off. (cuz it's 100 degrees here today!!)


And if you are interested, the travel site for Rachel is here.

Please leave prayers and encouragement for my wonderful hubby!!
