We're feeling alot of nervous energy now, so we decided to be productive and go shopping for Mika. We bought a toy box and two toys for her. We're so excited and happy about having a toy box (the LAST one at the PX!!) in the house. We also made a "countdown to Mika chain." We'll remove one link at the end of the day every evening. Only 28 days to go until we fly to Taiwan to bring her home! We're hoping to meet up with our friends Heather and Ian who live in Canada and are adopting two beautiful sisters from the same orphanage as us. We're picking up Mika the day before they arrive in Taipei, so we're hoping to finally see each other! We plan to stay in Taipei for 6 days and then come home to Okinawa.
It's very emotional to realize our dream is coming true.....we feel very grateful for all of the love and support we've had around us over these past few months.
