9 days until we meet :)

i am a reader of blogs, notsomuch a writer.

but you gathered that by now :)

we received TA about 10 days ago and we finally have travel dates! it is so fun to be at this stage of the journey. ming, i have written your last letter and pray it arrives next week. all i can do now is keep praying for God to give you the peace and joy that only He can give.

for a long time, i have used two main words to describe God because to me they sum up all His attributes that i love about Him. because He is impossible to grasp and describe and understand in human terms, i boiled it down to two words -- amazing and mysterious. and yesterday, i smiled when i saw 'mist' in 'misterious'. thank you janet for your comment on the last post :)

(and thank you sandra too - i have tried hard to track down a way to contact you and can't. i am sooo happy about your upcoming adoption! i hope you read this and know how much your comments here and to phoebe have meant to me....)

Lord willing, our gotcha day is june 21st. which just happens to be our 25th wedding anniversary. i still chuckle when i think of what our preacher said when i told him this.... i said, "not too many people can say they are still having kids on their 25th anniversary." and his reply, "not too many would want to." that cracks me up! it is fun to be abi-normal :)

and the day abigail becomes a US citizen? fourth of july! is this girl special or what?
