We're Leaving on a JET PLANE!!!!

AHHH yes we leave tomorrow! I cannot begin to explain how this feels, partly because I'm not sure I'm really experiencing this - LOL! Truly it is surreal to think that we leave tomorrow to go around the world to pick our daughter and become a family of "3". It is the craziest feeling. As you can probably imagine I have been crazing packing and repacking, the repacking again and then splitting it in half and packing it again. So finally afer 9 hours of packing I think I got it - that is until tomorrow morning - haha. Target loves me!!!

I have appreciated all your well wishes, email, call, posts on the blogs, cards you name it - what a super group of friends I have made through this whole journey, I could not have made it through this without your guys, friends and family that's for sure! Well I'm not sure how much we will be able to blog tomorrow but maybe a quick post from the airport or such. But wanted to let you all know we're ready!!!! 4 days until we meet Sophia and that goes to "2" when we land in Taipei on Saturday at 8:45 am.

I do solemly swear to update my blog as MUCH as possible while in Taiwan and when we get back!

Love to all -
Tiffany and Chris

Hooray!!! You're off!!!! I'm praying for you all today as you make the long flight. I'm sure I will feel that "surreal feeling" too. After waiting and waiting for this to happen, it must be unbelievable to think it's actually... happening!!! :) Hugs to you all - I'll be on the lookout for more posts from Taiwan, especially some pictures of SOPHIA WITH HER FAMILY!!!!
