I should be doing something . . .

I should be making phone calls, cleaning the house, packing - something other than sitting here looking at the photos we have of Tia. I was reading parts of this blog and just trying to prepare myself for the reality of this precious little girl who will soon be our daughter.

I cannot believe this is really happening. In 7 days we will have survived the 8 hour flight to China. We will have already been to Beijing and stood upon The Great Wall, visited the Forbidden Palace and the Summer Palace. We will have eaten Peking Duck and exchanged American dollars for Chinese RMB,. We will have fallen in love with a country so very different from any we've been to before. To top off all these experiences we will have a new daughter.

We leave for China in 46 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
