Today is what they call "Gotcha Day", the day we meet Grace.  It's early Sunday morning and in about 10 hours, we'll have Grace in our arms.  We'll leave the hotel with the one other family going to Jiangxi province at 8:30am for our 11:30am flight to it's capital, Nanchang.  Grace lives about 4 hours outside Nanchang and sometime soon she will be travelling too (by car or train or bus, we don't know).  Since the number of adoptions have been down so much, we won't be meeting Grace in a group with the other families.  Instead, our understanding is we'll just get a knock on our hotel room door and someone will bring Grace directly into our room (and into our hearts forever).

  1. OMG!!! I'm sooooo excited and happy for both of you :)
    I just can't believe this day has finally arrived. I know this wait can be driving you crazy and the time just doesn't seem to go by fast enough. But it is worth it. Soon , as you said, she will be in your lives forever!!!
    Give her a BIG hug for me when you see her.
    Looking forward for your next post.
