The best email yet in this long journey came to us at 9:37 CDT this morning. Here is a snippet of it:
Congratulations! The American Consulate has confirmed your appointment for October 18th 2010 @ 10:00am!!!
YES!!!! It just seems more for real now that we have a date and a tentative itinerary to get WeiWei. October 10th or 11th are our potential Gotcha Days. (I will put the actual itinerary on the site as soon as it is confirmed later this week.)
Now we are spending this long weekend (thankfully more time) trying to determine how we want to travel, who is going, and where we need to go. Jenn is searching feverishly for possible options in Chongqing and Fuling now. It appears to be a very scenic and beautiful place to be. We look forward to spending a couple of days there with WeiWei before heading back to busy days in Guangzhou before coming home.
Devin is still trying to determine if he is going with us. He will not really give any indications of his reason to stay here. It could be school, friends, etc. We are great with whatever is decided. We just want him to be led by his Father on what is best, as we have confidence that he can make the best decision with Him at the head.
We did find out that Jenn’s dad (aka GDaddy) is going to go!! He loves to travel, and he has wanted to go back to China since his 2003 mission trip there. So having him with us will be such a great experience for all of us.
No matter what……we are getting our daughter in 5 weeks!!! Lots to do before then, but well worth every second.
Soli Deo Gloria!
Mark
