What I know...

Well, I woke up to lots of interesting email today. Our agency has sent us Visa applications and travel information forms to fill out just in case our TA comes in time to jump on the November wagon! I know that sounds promising...but I really just take it as them doing everything they can to be ready...just in case TA comes in. They could still come back and say that China does not have our paperwork ready yet. Our agency is waiting on them (China)...but giving gentle nudges (I say start shoving!...I'm joking!)

What else do I know...well I know that if we do go in November that we will depart for China around the 18th and be returning on the 30th.

I know that there are at least 2 other families that received the same call that I did about preparing for November travel...just in case (they are in the same boat I am).

And I know that....we really won't know anything more until next week! Ahhhh! It's only Wednesday!

Oh well...it IS going to happen right?? This all sounds better than wondering if it will be January or February!

In the mail today we received a very special gift for Mei Lin and a letter from a certain family that we have a very special connection to in Amherst, NS. For privacy, I will not mention names, but here is a picture of the special gift that Mei Lin received.

Oh, did anyone notice Mei Lin's picture in the paper today??






I have been following her care package...here is the most updated information as per Canada Post Tracking site:

Oh yes! I saw MeiLin's picture in the paper today! And my friend called me to say she saw her picture too. MeiLin is very well known, you know. I've been giving all my friends and family updates on your journey so it may just surprise you to know how many people were admiring Miss MeiLin in the Journal today.
Can't wait to find out what next week brings.
