Passing The Time

One last foot massage!
We are so thankful and amazed that Angela and Matt and her parents on our this trip with us. We met Angela and Matt through my friend Orie (who met Matt at PWC). At the time, they had lived in China for a year and a half. Angela gave me wonderful advice prior to moving to China and we became great friends. Angela and Matt were six months "ahead" of us in the adoption process. So, they helped us a ton with all the paperwork. Angela's mom even helped by sending in some stuff since she knew what to do and had done it for Angela with stuff that had to be sent from the states. We never in a million years thought we would get our daughters at the same time. We did. And our daugthers are from the same province which is why we are able to travel together. Another beautiful miracle in this blessed journey to our baby girl.

As we are 4 hours away from getting our babies at the time of this post, I just cannot tell you how wonderful it is to have our dear friends to share right along with us in all that is happening. We are so thankful!
