** Countdown to our adoption: Only 8 hours left before we get Matthew. **
BEIJING, China (Tuesday, Dec. 9, 2008, 6:30 a.m.) – Well, it turns out we have just a couple of minutes to give a quick update – but not much has changed since our last post.
We are sitting in the hotel lobby early Tuesday morning preparing to eat breakfast. Then we’ll check out of our room and head to the airport – and fly out before the first snowfall of the season is expected possibly tonight.
Weather forecasts for Zhengzhou are a little better than Beijing: Highs in the 50s and 60s during our three-day stay there. Should be a welcome change.
As I said before, we’ll update with photos and stories as soon as we get Matthew.
Before we go, we will share this quick photo of Pam and me in front of the Temple of Heaven. In our hands are two small, hand-knit animals that will serve as Christmas tree ornaments.
I know you can’t see it, but I am holding a small pig to (representing that Matthew was born in the Year of the Pig, 2007) while Pam is holding a small rooster (representing that Camryn was born in the Year of the Rooster, 2005).
DON’T FORGET: Help Pam decide what to eat in China before we leave. Cast you vote in the poll on the left. The poll closes on at 11:59 p.m. Central Time on Wednesday.
