We are off!!!!




In a couple hours we will be (hopefully asleep!) on our way to China!!! The bags are all packed (by packed I mean overweight and bulging at the seams!) and my mom has arrived to take over the parenting until we get back. We arrive in Ben's province at about 11:30pm on Sunday and then we will get Ben on Monday. Talk about NO adjustment period for us (reference sleeping comment above!).

We would appreciate any words of encouragement you can send our way and, when we get back, we will print off the comments and add them to Ben's homecoming book.

The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.

Ben, Mom and Dad will soon be embarking in the trip of a lifetime. This is going to be your greatest adventure. You will soon join a family who will love you and take care of you forever.

Wishing you the best happinest!

I can't wait for you guys to finally meet!!! We will be right behind your Mommy and Daddy to bring Caleb home. It will be so much fun for the two of you to reunite once you are both home. I'm looking forward to seeing you both grow and become the young men that God desires for you to be.
Melissa
Caleb's mommy!

Wish I'd been keeping up with your blog all week. What an adventure! Glad you're home, and you're enjoying Ben so much! Keep us posted--are you in the marathon today?
