take off

We are sitting on the plane in Seattle ready to take off for Beijing. We already met another family on the flight adopting thru the same agency. They are from Indiana and also have four boys and are adopting a two year old little girl. Fun surprise to get to know them. They approached me because my empty pink stroller was a dead giveaway :-).

Also, before we left, I contacted the awesome organization "Love Without Boundaries," which we sponsor a little girl through. I asked if we could tour one of their orphan healing homes in our daughter's province. Immediately before we took off from Salt Lake City I received an email that said they would be happy to give us a tour on Tuesday. I am thrilled to hear this as I see myself advocating for orphans for all my days.

I'm typing from my phone and they are telling me to shut it off.

See you on the other side.
