One week from now we are in China!

Wow! What a week it's been-it is actually hard to grasp that this day is finally almost here. I think it set in when I was setting up the doctor's appointments for James. Unfortunately I made them for the Monday and Tuesday right after we get back, those were the only openings that first week and I want to get all of these appointments made. The doctor said it is not going to be a fun appointment. We will try to make it fun with candy. We have been so blessed the past week. Caroline's soccer team had a surprise party/shower for us and got all the things for James bedroom! We were so overwhelmed with their kindness. We love our soccer family! Our small group gave us a send off with prayer (and laughter!) and a target gift card. Mike's coworkers had a shower lunch for James and he has some totally adorable clothes and great cars and trucks! I feel like it is all the final details are coming together. Our visas arrived the other day and we will have our travel meeting this week also. I don't think I am sleeping well with all the excitement. I am reading a great book- Saving Levi- I highly recommend it for adoption readers. AND my sister in China has come into contact with the author and is actually having dinner with her tomorrow-How cool is that! Next week we will finally get to hug James in person!!!
