Waiting for TA

Hi Friends and Family

Just wanted to update you on a few things.  First of all we are officially on the last step until our journey to China.  We are waiting for our TA (Travel Approval) date.  We should receive this date within the next 1.5-3weeks.  Please keep us in prayer as the timing of this date is very crucial with the Christmas Holidays in play.  When we receive this TA we will travel within 10-21 days and will have to get our Visa during this time.  So your prayers are appreciated.

I wanted to let you know that the agency sent me information about a need for the Henan Orphanages: Donations to orphanages (Attention Henan Families)
The Henan orphanages are in need of winter clothing for children up to 18 months old (onesies & winter sweaters), small hand towels, bibs as well as toys that make sounds (new items or barely used please!).  Also, we are in need of bottles for cleft lip and palate kids as well as nursing pillows for the Lily Orphan Care Centers.  Please give the donated items to your CCAI rep once you arrive in Henan.  We know the babies and orphanage staff will be appreciative!  Thank you so much.

If anyone wants to donate to the Orphanages we are more than happy to take them on our trip :).

Update on Luke:
We received information on him a few weeks ago.  They said that he is NOT potty trained :(.  He goes to sleep easily but likes to sleep with a red blanket.  He likes salty food.  He likes slides.
He weighs around 30 pounds and wears around a 6 in shoes.  He is in good health.
