Our bags are packed and we are almost ready to go. We leave tomorrow and arrive in Vietnam late Saturday night. We leave Sunday morning for the province where Mya has lived her entire life, about a 5 hour drive. We check into our hotel and head to meet her, yea!! We are supposed to have what they call a Giving and Receiving ceremony on Monday where she becomes a part of this family forever. There is a possibilty that this will be pushed back to Wednesday and if so we will visit her at the center a few more times. It will work out. We will then head back to Ho Chi Minh City and begin the process to bring her home. It will take 1-2 weeks to accomplish this. Right now our plan is to come home on August 3 arriving home on the 4th. We could be home sooner ar later. But as we wait this time we will be getting to know her and she will be learning about her new family. We are amazed that this is finally happening!!

Prayer requests for us as we travel:
1. Ability to make our flights
2. Travel safety
3. Ability to sleep when we should to be rested when we reach Mya
4. Eyes to take in much of Mya's homeland in order to share it with her as she grows
5. Know what questions to aks her caretakers
6. Timing of all our appointments
7. Trust God's timing in everything
8. We would be a good ambassador for our agency, country, and faith
9. Bonding, bonding, bonding with Mya
10. Mya would not be fearful, but learn to trust us quickly
11. We will learn how to communicate through the language barrier
12. Health


We will try to post before we head to the province.
