Asia Bound!

In less than two weeks we are Asia Bound!  There is so much to do to prepare for our trip....our wonderful friends and family have offered to help, but most of what we need to do, we need to do ourselves.  But slowly, my husband and I are checking things off of our "To Do" list.  It will be a relief to get on the plane.

We expect that our Giving and Receiving Ceremony will be the 1st week of July.  We are looking forward to getting to Vietnam a few days earlier.  We plan to visit the orphanage a few times before taking our son back to the hotel.  This will give him a few days to get used to us before he transitions into our family, and away from all he currently knows. But we are sure with time, patience and alot of love and understanding, he will transition nicely.

Thank goodness for everyone who has travelled before us...it has been so helpful compiling suggestions and recommendations from other families.  We feel pretty organized and definitely ready for our big trip.

    just two weeks and you will have two sons...

    What a nice idea to go earlier to meet him softly.

    I hope we will walk in your steps quickly.

    Good suitcases.
