Yes, it is official we are going to China! In record speed, we received our TA (travel approval) today. We should hear by Wednesday when our U.S. Consulate Appointment is. Our agency says we could possibly travel in the next 2 to 3 weeks. Those weeks start after the Wednesday we hear about our appointment. Holy cow do we have a lot to do between now and then! We will be taking our kids and Laurel's parents are going too. We will be traveling with a great couple, we have been in the adoption process with. We will receive our babies together. We are glad we get to go with them. They are a great couple. Here's to leaving on a jet plane...hopefully in the next couple weeks!
Today I was at W*lM*rt and I had the WEIRDEST experience. I can't wait to hear what you all have to say about it. I was at the self check out and the worker that handles those came over to Nini and put her hands on Nini's cheeks and literally put her nose against Nini's nose. Okay....don't know you, plus it is serious cold and flu season. I pulled the cart back quickly. The lady was talking to Nini and asking her how old she was and telling her how cute she is (she is that). Then she said to me, "where did you get her from?" That question threw me. I have been asked where she is from, what nationality she is, but never, "where did you get her from?" I said China, but was thinking, "does she think I got her from a store or something?" This was just the beginning of what was the MOST outrageous conversation I have ever been apart of. She asked me her name. I told her and she said, "Thank you! It makes me so happy to hear that name."...
