It's official! It's final! It's really finally happening after exactly 1 year of reams of paperwork, the official adoption decree was signed in Lanzhou, China just moments ago and Lan Shi Qing is officially part of our family! Praise be to God! Less than 24 hours ago Katie and Addie finally got to meet little Lan Shi Qing and she melted their hearts. They called at here at 3:00 in the morning and we were able to video chat for a while and while there wasn't a lot of talking (some "ni hao's" and some awkward attempts at saying her Chinese name properly) there were a lot of smiles and laughs. It was so cute to hear her little voice say 'ni hao papa', talk about a melting heart! It was truly amazing to see her in 'real life' (across a digital communication channel, but it was live!) and not some dated pictures or video - she was actually with Katie and Addie, and no longer in an orphanage! She has a family, she has a home, she has our hearts...we are so blessed!
