The final "A"

Our consulate appointment is June 25th! We need to be in Hong Kong by June 13th. Finally - this is happening! We are so excited. I can't believe we are leaving in 2 weeks!!!! OMG! I have so much to do. I'm trying to get flights now, comparing Lotus and JC Travel. 2 weeks folks! We fly to Guangzhou on the 15th from Hong Kong. I'm sad that we will not be visiting Beijing but so excited thinking that we'll be able to give Little T a hug soon!!

Hey..this is Mysty, John's daughter that got her little China beauty in August of 2007! I just want to say that I can feel your excitement and know EXACTLY what you are going through! It is amazing!! It took us 2 years, but I would love to do it all over again. While you are there, and a little after you get home it seems like a blur, so take as many pictures as you can. I think we took about 1200...not exaggerating!!I look back and then now and remember doing all those things and the feelings I had during that time become real again..it's kinda like we do it all over again! Have fun and take in all you can. IT's kinda sad too because you know you are taking your sweetie out of this situation, but there are sooo many more there that are going to stay. When you look at the area and how they live, it's just sad but I just thanked God everyday that Olivia was getting out and prayed for the ones that were staying and that hopefully more of them will get out too!! Don't worry about Beijing, except for the Great Wall, I would have rather not gone. We were soooo busy seeing all the neat things, that alot of us got sick!! If we do get to do this again, we are skipping Beijing! So don't be too sad! I will be praying for you and if you need any advice on anything, I will tell you what I know. We went to Changsha, Hunan and it was HOT in August!! I heard it was even hot now! Anyway...prayers to you. If you want to email me, please feel free!!! Mystyfy@comcast.net Again, congratulations and YAY!!! You get to hold your precious one soon!! It's a feeling you can't explain and will NEVER forget!!
