We're at the Gate waiting to board the plane!!! When we approached the security area there was a large group of people clearly waiting for a loved one to arrive. They had welcome banners and some were wearing shirts with Chinese symbols on them. I immediately got teary-eyed and told Dan that they were probably waiting for a baby. I had to ask and a lady told me her niece traveled to China to adopt a baby and she's about to land. Then the tears started! I told her we were on our way to adopt our daughter and she got so excited and hugged me. I didn't want to leave. I wanted to wait and see the baby. I had no choice but to go. Luckily the security lines took forever and we got to see the family and the baby from afar. The family was clapping and snapping a million pictures. The baby was just adorable, I mean she's no Gigi but she was cute! She was several months younger than Gigi and just hung on to her mommy. I was, of course, in full blown tears at this point. What an amazing way to begin our journey by getting to see a glimpse of the end. As much as we look forward to the next 16 days we can't wait to be arriving home with her to begin our new life together!
Ok, they're boarding now!!! Gotta go!!!
