Getting Ready to go...

Well,  it's almost here.  Can you believe we're actually sitting around watching a soap opera instead of running around like chickens with our heads cut off?  Vonda's just about done with everything.  I on the other hand still have a few things that have to get done.  Our kitchen table is loaded up like Best Buy with camcorders, camera, DVD player, laptop, movies, etc.  I've got to get it all packed away and still be accessible.  I can't believe the process we started in December is really happening now.  Pray for us that everything continues to go as smoothly as it has so far.  We also want to take the time to thank our families and friends for their support through this process.  I've spent way too much time online reading Russian adoption boards, and you would be amazed how many people tell the same story of receiving resistance and opposition from their families and friends as they consider international adoption.  Every interaction we have had has been positive, and we are so grateful for that. We leave tomorrow at midday.  We'll look for our first opportunity to update the Blog as soon as we can. Thank you all for your support.
