Praise Report ...Prayer Request....It's Getting Close

Okay everyone we got a call yesterday from CCAI, our adoption agency saying that they anticipate a BIG batch of TAs (Travel Approvals) in next week and that they expect ours to be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They got some information from us and were making calls to other families to go ahead and get some preliminary information. (and yes Kelly's should be in there too!)

So dates, at this point the plan is that we would leave on June 16 returning July 2 or 3rd. This would work great for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is where I need your prayers. If the consulate appointments are booked (pray they are not!!!!) we would travel one week later June 23. If we do this it would mean we have to send Christian with one of other families on the baseball team to Cooperstown and meet him up there a couple days later. We should still be able to catch all his games (maybe only miss 1 worst case) but it woudl be more intense, unpacking, repacking and leaving from China straight on a 12 hour drive to New York. Not ideal...but will do what we have to do and find God in whatever that is! He is there with us I know each step of the way.

CCAI is very optimistic we will travel on the 16th and are aware of our other obligation. We are remaining positive, this is great news. God has taken us this far and is about to take us to our daughter and we can hardly wait! We are very very excited....2-1/2 weeks from now we could be on our way to China...no we will be I just know it.

Thanks to all of you for your support on this 3+year journey, it is about to come to an incredible end ....we covet your prayers in these last days and with this final check point. Thanks..we love you!
