Hoping & Praying for good news

This week will hopefully be a BIG week for us.  We are currently on day 7 of our travel approval wait.  I am praying hard that we receive news that our travel approval has been granted in the next couple of days.  Not because it will really change anything for us....but it will help us know when Tim and Dawn will probably receive theirs.  Their Article 5 paperwork should have been picked up within the last 12 hours and should be enroute to Beijing as I type this.  It will hopefully be delivered to CCCWA tomorrow and then they will be exactly 7 days behind us in the TA wait.  Tim and Dawn need to receive their TA by the end of next week so we can make our tentative departure date of April 4th a reality!  We "shouldn't" book our airfare until we both have travel approval and confirmed visa appointments for the girls...but it's getting tough to watch the airfare prices increase every day that passes. 

Also, we are praying hard that we receive good news about the one last grant we applied for that we are waiting to hear back from.  I have been told that the Board of Directors will be reviewing applications this week and we should hear back from them by the end of the week. 

So if you are a hoping and praying kind of person....please join us in our very humble requests for speedy TA's and the blessings of this grant that is pending.
