Can't Wait to Be Home!

Today was a much better day! Praise the Lord, Lottie showed some improvement and seemed to be feeling a little better. We can tell the prayers and the medicine are working! She still didn't eat much throughout the day, but actually played some (which she hasn't really done since Sunday evening).

We headed to the U.S. Consulate this morning for our important appointment to gain her visa and clearance to enter the U.S. She did great at the appointment and everything went smoothly. They should have her visa ready tomorrow afternoon in time for us to head to the airport! We had a restful afternoon including naps and more walking around the hotel grounds (Lottie's favorite thing to do).

 

 

 

Our travel group includes two other Lifeline families and we have LOVED spending the week with them. We have formed some great friendships and are so thankful to be sharing this part of our journey with them. We all went out to dinner tonight to celebrate reaching the end of this adoption process! We enjoyed visiting together and sharing a table full of GREAT Chinese food. And guess who decided to eat some at dinner tonight?!?! Lottie surprised us by digging in on the green beans of all things! She could not get enough of them. We were happy to oblige by keeping her bowl full of them. She did not want anything else, but we were certainly pleased to see her eating again.

 

Our flight to L.A. leaves tomorrow night at 9:30pm. We have another connection to make in Dallas before heading into Jackson at 9:45am on Saturday morning. Pray for all three of us as we have about 26 hours of travel ahead of us. We can't wait to be HOME!!!
