After 48 hours of traveling, we are finally here! It is almost 6 PM in Chongqing and we are trying to hang on just a little longer before we allow our eyes to close. The only sleep we have gotten in the last 48 hours has been here and there on airplanes, so we are exhausted! We have spent the last couple of hours exploring the area around our hotel. It is so great to be back in China! The sights, the sounds, even the smells...I love it!!!!
Tomorrow is the big day...Hannah Ryan's Gotcha Day! Our appointment at the civil affairs building is at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon...that is when they will hand us our baby girl. Please be praying for her...her world is about to be rocked. We have spent months preparing for this moment, and she has no clue what is coming. Tomorrow will likely be a traumatic day for her as she is taken away from the only home and caregivers she has known. She may even be scared of us at first...we look a little different than what she is used to. ;) Please pray that we can have a good day of bonding tomorrow and she can begin the process of trusting us. Tomorrow we become a family of five!!!
