Decision Made But Tenatively

I want to start by thanking the many of you who emailed or commented to us that you would pray for Rob and I. With that said, we have made a hard decision. There is a strong possibility that our little girl could be coming home in about 2 weeks! What made the decision so difficult was that we had to decide to have her escorted home rather than us travel to Korea. Our hearts were set on meeting her foster mom and seeing her culture, but we could not pass up the chance to have her home quicker. Of course, this all depends on if her travel documents are expedited and cleared prior to July 24th. So, tenatively, she could be escorted to the U.S. in two weeks, but if the documents don't clear, then we will have to wait longer and we would be able to travel to get her. Rob and I are very excited about this opportunity! Our next decision is whether we will fly to L.A. to meet her or have her brought to us in STL. We will keep everyone posted with any and all news that comes our way. We really do want all of our friends and family at the airport to meet her and welcome her home.

Sending lots of prayers your way ~ hope you find peace with your decision! We can't wait to meet Miss Evelyn AND if she is escorted, we'll just have to talk you into travelling with us to Korea in 2012!!
PS Jared was escorted and it was perfect for our family!
