Travel Approval!

I am a planner.

I need to have a plan...planning is what I do.

Apparently, China could care less about my silly plans 
or my desperate need to always
have a plan!

With the amazing news that China issued our official 
Travel Approval, came the news that we need to leave for China
as soon as possible.

Translation - Emily's plan - out the window!

Lily has been living the past year 
at a dangerously low oxygen saturation.

Waiting is no longer an option.
Our baby girl needs to come home NOW!!!!

God's plan has always been so much better than anything I could 
ever possibly dream up or imagine.

So tonight, I am clinging to the promise that God has known 
the exact moment
our girls will be in our arms forever...

Today was just the day that I was let in on His plan!

So we are still waiting on a few more things from China, 
but it looks like Mackenzie & Lily 
will forever be in our arms
on Monday, May 7th.

Plan or not...China here we come!

  3. I can hardly wait to see just what God has planned. Commotion, chaos no longer matter because we have hope...
    Jeremiah 29:11
    For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
    My favorite part is that God is actually preparing us for a future!
