Our good news arrived last Friday September 14th with the quarterly update from Vietnam. We got great new pictures of Sarah, accompanied by the good news of a much better health update. She had not needed I/V fluids this quarter, she appeared to be eating a little better and she had gain a pound and a half. We were thrilled! What a great start to the weekend.
Our great News was that on Saturday, my dear friend Dena hosted a "not quite a baby shower" shower in Sarah's honor. It was great fun! Thank you all that attended and thank you Dena for a wonderful day!
Our Awesome news came at 8:30 a.m. on Monday morning September 17th. Holt called to let us know we had Travel Approval. It arrived exactly a month from our providencial approval. (Finally we were on the short end of the average wait time.) All along we had been told we could expect 3 weeks notice from our travel approval until we were expected to be there. That was not the case for us. We were told we needed to be in Vietnam by September 30th and that we would have the official giving and receiving adoption ceremony on Monday October 1st. (If you are doing the math that is less than two weeks notice.) We are thrilled! We are finally coming Sarah!
