Happy Thanksgiving/5 more days!

Happy Thanksgiving! Only 5 more days until we leave. There were so many times I thought this adoption would not happen and now I am typing 5 more days.....How exciting! We have so much to be thankful for this holiday season, family, friends, our health and a little girl waiting for us in China. God has truly blessed us. We are so thankful for all the support and prayers through this process.

I am so excited and happy but also a little nervous and so many other emotions. I can't wait to hold Ciarra after only having a picture to look at for several months but also a little worried about leaving the kids at home. A HUGE thank you to my parents, Grandma Shers and Pop for taking care of them while we are gone with not much of a break. I know taking care of 3 kids with very busy schedules is a lot when you are not use to it. We will have a cell phone in China and will be calling home often and of course will have to get updates on basketball games.

We are traveling with 4 other families and have been in contact with them. One of the families will be on our flight from Minneapolis to Tokyo to Beijing. There are 3 boys and 2 girls that will be united with their forever families. Please pray that all have a smooth transition.

Hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving and our next post will be from China!
