Now you can plan and pack and get ready to get on that plane and get your beautiful son home!<BR/><BR/>I completely empathize with the questions about the delay. Our "Gotcha" date was about 7 weeks after the first decree too, and it was agonizing to wait. But there was soooo much to do, and the days did fly by.<BR/><BR/>Good Luck, and we can't wait till you bring your bundle of joy home with you!<BR/><BR/>Safe travels.<BR/><BR/>LataL.

Hang in there - your little Island Boy is waiting, and you'll be able to kiss that little face in only a matter of weeks!! <BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>Rebecca<BR/>www.untilwemeetintaiwan.blogspot.comRebecca Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05963057412380331638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557532675073505666.post-507617476510208572007-09-28T14:22:00.000-07:002007-09-28T14:22:00.000-07:00I know, it's so hard when they keep moving dates o...I know, it's so hard when they keep moving dates on you. I also don't understand why it takes so long to unite the parents with the children once you have done the paperwork to accept that child. But on the bright side, it's October in 2 days and then you can say you are off next month!!! Now that will be good! And you know you will be home and settling in before Christmas.Glen and Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13996335785493720558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557532675073505666.post-41733246926576682212007-09-28T14:08:00.000-07:002007-09-28T14:08:00.000-07:00Congratulations on the super important step of hav...Congratulations on the super important step of having travel dates! Our travel was delayed, too (due to Chinese New Year) and it was really hard to have to wait that much longer, but it was great to finally have the dates and be able to make arrangements.

We were so shocked when we went to China with the coveted I600...ready to hand it over to the proper authorities to show we are worthy...they didn't even want to look at it. Such a let down, several people in our group explained that this paper was held close to our hearts for several months and now no one wants to see it! A little frustrating.shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10054790889751068095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557532675073505666.post-368063306863491732007-09-28T08:21:00.000-07:002007-09-28T08:21:00.000-07:00Hi Renae - Okay so first off - Congrats on the tra...Hi Renae - Okay so first off - Congrats on the travel dates - YOU ARE OFFICIAL with a date and everyting that is so exciting. I truly understand the let down...once your told an average and have a date in your mind it's so hard. The babies are getting older and I truly understand what you're saying and it doesn't make sense at all!!!!!! Island boy needs to be home - - NOW! I can't believe that about the final decree I thought that was the mother ship...good to know but like you I"m somewhat let down!<BR/><BR/>to be honest it makes me nervous we just got our 1st decree and told 6 - 7 weeks until travel which puts us right at the dates you travel...So my hopes is that we will go together but my fear is that it means a later travel date for us then we are expecting as well so I guess I should settle down on getting her for her 1st bday on 11/10 huh? That may not be possible. Okay - reality check but still we're one step closer!<BR/><BR/>Congrats again!!! Island Boy is coming home YEAH I'ts the final countdown (you know the song - LOL)<BR/><BR/>TiffanyTiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15261983762826321638noreply@blogger.com
