TRAVEL APPROVAL!!!!

It's official!!! We finally have permission from the China Center for Adoption Affairs to travel and bring our little girl home!!! I think I may be able to breathe again soon. After all the agonizing days of waiting, of wondering, of hoping, of finally knowing and then staring at her pictures and watching and rewatching and watching and rewatching her sixty second video... she is finally almost here! A month from now, as winter turns quietly to spring, and Steve and I sit here by the fire, she will be upstairs sleeping in her room, just a few steps away from the little boy who has waited so patiently to be a brother, and our family will be safe and complete.
