Sorry, no pictures this time. I just wanted to let you all know that we are leaving in the morning!!!! Yaaayyyy!!! Please be praying for safe travels and for our boys and my mom as she is the one having to care for them while we are gone:O)
It is now 1am in the morning and we just finished our last minute packing, or should I say, last hours packing. I sure wish I was more on top of things so that I could have been in bed by 10pm, but alas, it was not to be!! Warren just drug his weary body to bed when I said that I still had to post. He's done....
Thank you to all of you who have supported us through this very long season of our adoption. I'm so happy to say, it's happenning this time!!!! Thank you to our small group who sent us off with lots of love and prayers this evening. I truly felt so much peace after you were all done praying.
My boys made it to bed after lots of loves and snuggles and they are so excited to meet their new sister. Mommies heart is heavy because of leaving her babies, but they are also so excited for their Nonnie to come. As Ethan said, "It will be great mama, Nonnie just spoils us and brings us candy." Caleb then piped in and added, "She just spoils us to death!" They are so excited for their Nonnie to come and snuggle them and read to them and play with them and go on fun outings with them. I am praying that they have a really special time with her, one that they will always remember.
We fly out of Seattle at 1pm and will arrive in Almaty, Kaz on friday morning. On Monday we will get to go to the baby house after traveling to Shymkent. Please pray that our time there goes well and that we don't hit too many bumps:O) We'll let you know as soon as we know when we've met our daughter!!!!
Love to you all!!
Jenn and Warren

Dearest Jenn and Warren:
hope that by now you are almost "there": that you will have a few days in Almaty to re-aclamate....but, guessing it will be hard to be "so close" to your baby girl, too. Hang in there. Keep us posted. Love you, almost wish I was there too! Love, Karla
adopted from Shymkent in Mar/Apr of 2004
guessing that you are in Almaty now...the place where apples came from! Have an apple for me!
Hope that your traveling went well, and that you are trusting God in the process. Love you!

OK girl, I've emailed you a few times, check your blog about every 1/2 hour, called your mom a couple of times.... I'm just about ready to fly on over there and find you!!! Lance and I are SO praying that things are going well. I'm really worried about you. I'm making some more phone calls in the morning to track you down. Hopefully we will have heard from you guys by then! Love you, and give Warren my love as well!!! Miss you tons, and praying for you guys about every 5 seconds!!!
