Packed & Ready To Head Home

Tomorrow morning we will be leaving the hotel at 7 AM to head for the airport and fly to Hong Kong, then from Hong Kong to LA, catch another flight to Memphis, then Panama City where Nicole's Godparents, Randall & Robin Ehrichs will meet us at the airport, unless of course they forget!








Since we will be having such an early morning and we must have everything packed, it looks like this will be the last posting until we get home. We won't have a chance to check emails tomorrow morning either.









What an incredible adoption journey this has been! We have been blessed with our wonderful little girl and tomorrow we are heading home. Praise the Good Lord! Words I'm loving to type.










Today we had group and individual photos taken, which we have posted. We also went to the U.S. Consulate office to take the oath. The oath was affirming that what we had submitted to the U.S. Consulate was true and accurate. I was holding Nicole in my left arm, right hand raised, along with Kelly and 56 other couples.



When it was all over, Nicole promptly blew chunks all over my arm. While she did not go for distance, she did go for volume. It was the first time she blew chunks on either of us, but I'm certain it won't be the last.









Nicole is on the bottom, third from the left.












God Bless,

Jim, Kelly, and Nicole
