No pictures today as it was a travel day. We took the fast train today. It was really great....you couldn't really tell you were going about 225 mph. It was a good experience though. We were harrassed by some fake taxi drivers but we have had wonderful lessons in how to say no we want a REAL taxi. It all worked out fine.
We get Kevin tomorrow at 1:30. We then meet back at our hotel and do paperwork around 4:30, I know you all want to be updated ASAP and I promise to do that. It still seems surreal that we are finally here and about to receive our precious son. Please remember us in your prayers tomorrow. We want the transition to be as smooth as possible.
Until tomorrow......
Every call has a beginning. A quiet moment when God whispers a promise to a mother’s heart . A holy place where a father bows and faithfully accepts the journey set before him. A miraculous morning that unexpectedly dawns… Casting its first light on a chosen threshold. A gentle knock..a closed door opens, a sacred invitation sent by the Father.. leads to the other side of the world. Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows praying for someone to care.. and then one morning, on an ordinary day an orphan’s life changes... God sends them a second chance...Through you..

Favorite Poem
We are a family now, a whole,of which you are a part,and you are just as much our child as any in our heart. We do not love you differently,nor would we give up less of all that life has given us to bring you happiness.There is no limit to our love,no boundary you might cross,no price you may be asked to pay,no need to fear its loss. We are now one, the five of us,windows of one home. As long as we have life and breath,You’ll never be alone.~Nicholas Gordon
