We received TA on June 22, just two weeks after LOA! We were shocked to say the very least when our agency called with the good news. Since we were expecting to travel in August, we were very excited to hear that we would be going to China in July. We are dreading the heat, but can’t wait to finally meet Oscar!

We decided to arrange for a short tour of Beijing since this is our first time to China. We will be there for the first few days to get acclimated, and then we will be off to Wuhan to meet our son!

Chris’s father graciously arranged our travel itinerary. We are incredibly thankful for his generosity for not only arranging our travel, but also for paying for it with his frequent flyer miles. We thank Chris’s parents for all of their love and support in our quest to bring home Oscar. Both of our families have been supportive, and they are very excited to meet Oscar.
