Big, big news! (Can you see how excited we are????) We received an e-mail from our adoption agency tonight letting us know that Leo has been issued his passport by the Korean government! We are one small step away from going to get him. Tomorrow Leo's foster mom is taking him to the US Embassy in Seoul for their standard visit and in a few days the embassy will issue his visa. Then we get our plane tickets to Korea and go! So we are on track to travel late next week or soon thereafter. We are beyond thrilled (and grateful, because we know there are other waiting families still out there). We are finally getting to the point of bringing our child to his new home. It really is surreal, because a big part of me felt like it was just never going to happen. And now it's almost here. Unbelievable. We are going out tomorrow to celebrate!
This blog chronicles our adoption journey, our union with our beautiful son, Leo, and the "happily every after" we are in the process of enjoying right now!
