Things are about to get crazy...

We just found out that we are going to be leaving for China about a week earlier than we thought!  And this is what the nursery looks like today. Yikes!

So excited for you and your family. Yep, as a single mommy to 2 girls (28 months old and 17 months old) I can agree that things will get crazy! But a good crazy!

Hello, you don't know me but I saw your post on Rumor Queen and can't wait for you to make your journey! I was in Nanchang in 2009 for my daughter and it was just incredible! God bless you and your family and please keep posting, it brings back such great memories!

Many Blessings for your safe journey, and remember all that matters is your girls, the rest is just details! :-)

The first office was where the adoption became official. ...
