As most of you have probably heard by now our visa interview went great and our kids visas should be printed on Friday and they will fly out with Hope and Robert on Friday night and land in Chicago Saturday morning!!!! We are so excited! Today Hope and Robert and the kids went out to the village of Agbadzikope. This is the village that they grew up in. The pictures above are of them about a year and a half ago. Today they went back to say goodbye to their relatives. It was about a three and a half hour drive to their village. They had hired a driver for the day and went out with another adoptive mom and her son. The kids took along their belongings from the orphanage to give away to friends and family. They had a wonderful day seeing where the kids had grown up, and also talking with their relatives. Hope really loved getting to be there and see where her new siblings had lived and played and meeting the people who had taken care of them. Tomorrow is another day of goodbyes. They are having a going away party with the kids at the orphanage so please pray for the kids and their hearts. They will have to say good bye to their best friends. Please pray for Hope and Robert too that they could be a comfort to the kids during this difficult time of transition.
