After many phone calls and changes, I have travel dates. I leave here on Saturday, 12/23 and arrive in China on Sunday evening. Then, thanks to all of the efforts of the people at HOPE for Children and Sue Sorrels Travel Agency, I will receive Madison on Christmas Day at 3pm.
I can not imagine a better Christmas than becoming a mom on that day. We will be staying at The Victory Hotel in Guangzhou, China the entire time. We will return on 1/10 and look forward to seeing everyone when we get back.
Maddie is 6 years old (April 2011)

Yea! Merry Christmas to you!
Wishing you trouble-free travel and a wonderful trip!
Wayne and I are so excited for you. I cried when I read your e-mail. We can't wait to see you two in person -- please come to Florida to visit us at your earliest opportunity. You know we have plenty of room and would love to have you!! My granddaughter, Gabriella is four now and would be a great playmate. Wayne and I are traveling to Hawaii for Christmas, but will return on January 6, 2007. We will be available via e-mail still and will be praying for your safe and exciting homecoming!
I MISS YOU SO MUCH! Your favorite Florida "Lawyer Chick!"
