MY TA (TRAVEL APPROVAL) ARRIVED!!!

TRAVEL APPROVAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!







When I got home today there was a message on my answering machine from my agency saying they had received my TA (Travel Approval) today from China. In Canada we actually call it the "Notice of Coming" but is essentially the same thing. This is the final piece of paperwork from China that I needed before my agency could actually make travel arrangements for me to go to China to bring my daughter home.
I am so very excited, happy and very overwhelmed right now. It is getting so "real".
I have been waiting so long and now that I am this close I 'm getting very nervous and scared.
I keep telling myself....breath....breath....breath!
