It's a Beautiful Day!!!

What a day it's been, friends!

The day started off with an email from a family we've been communicating with. They just received their daughter who is from the same orphanage as Grace, and they were able to get a couple of pictures of our girl! We couldn't be happier to have these photos, but it also makes us sad that she has matured so much and we've missed it. The man in one of the pictures is the Director of her orphanage. Here's our Gracie:


















And then, just when we thought things couldn't possibly get better, we received the call from CCAI's travel department...WE HAVE TA!!! That's right, Gracie's coming home! Our tentative travel dates are October 21 - November 4.

Also, I'd like to once again thank my friends Susan H. and Jacquie for the wonderful packages they sent this week! I have been so fortunate to meet some truly fabulous people thanks to the adoption process. I've made friends for life and you all mean so much to me!
