1 more day!

Hello all! We get to see Emma again in about 4 hours. I can't wait! We leave tomorrow morning at 8am from here after Dr. Kim prays over our sweet girl (know I'll cry at that one!). Please pray for our sweet girl as she has so many new adjustments coming her way. Also lift up her wonderful foster family as they give her to us. We found out that this wonderful woman only keeps children with special needs--what an angel!!! She has definitely helped our little one! Thanks for all of your prayers. Will try to post pictures tonight of our visit today.

btw--really wish I could read hangul, it would be much easier to post as I don't know what to click on ;-)

Our first visit with Emma!!

Hello Seoul!!

After a VERY long day yesterday, where the sun never went down, we are HERE!! I am so excited to be in the land of my babies' birth! Will try to update as we can. We are off to hold some babies in the nursery and give them some lovin' ;-) then on to see the city! We are exhausted and are so messed up with sleep (@4 hours in 48 hours...not much to go on) but hopefully can push through it all and have a blast!
We'll try to post soon--we don't get to see our baby girl until Monday morning at 10:00 here (8:00 Sunday night midwest time) but will let you know, if we can even describe it, how our meeting goes! We can't wait to see her!

To my wonderful kids at home--mommy and daddy miss you SO much!! We can't wait to show you pictures and share with you how wonderful Korea is! We love you!

If you see my kiddos, give them a big kiss for me ;-) and make sure my mom is making it ;-)

Here we go!!!

We are leaving in the morning for KC. Thank you all for your prayers for us, and can't wait until we get back with our precious girl! Please pray, as it is hard on all of us leaving the boys' and Maia behind. We will try to update this as often as we can. See you in a week!
Love you all!!!

Praise God...Travel Call!!!!!

We are so excited! This loooong wait, that no one understood why it was happening, is finally over. Our caseworker was relieved to finally be able to call us and let us know this morning, I think. We are waiting to hear for sure on flights, but will either leave Wednesday or Friday. Please pray that we are able to get the best flight we can. It has been a long day of phone calls and computer time, but we are so excited we can't stand it! Now to pack ;-)
Also, my sister left for 10 days in China today, but we were able to tell her by phone rather than email that call came-PTL for that!
Sweet Emma, mommy and daddy are coming!!!!!

Still no news

Well, not much new to put on here. It has been awhile so thought I should probably put something on here. We are still waiting...not exactly sure why, but we are. Our agency is trying to find out some answers for us, but that was Monday. It is now 5:15 am in Korea, please pray that today the agency in Korea gets some answers for us, whether it is from the embassy or within the agency, and that we get news (preferably travel call) tomorrow! I just need to hold my daughter!!!

My little sis leaves for LA, then on to Vietnam tomorrow as well. I just don't know how much more my emotions can take. I will miss her so very much, and a year is such a long time!
Please pray for all of us tomorrow, as it will be hard to say goodbye to Melia.
I love you girl!
