Well, we are all packed up and ready to go. Would you believe that we can't sleep?? Everyone has been asking us for a rundown of our trip for prayer purposes. Once you see it, you'll know why we need prayer:) Here is what our trip will look like:
We leave Norfolk at 710am on 30Jan2006 and arrive in Atlanta around 9am. At noon,we then settle in for our 16 hour flight to Seoul, Korea where we will arrive around 5pm on 31Jan2006. We will ring in the New Year in Seoul as our flight to Mongolia is on the 1st!! Long lay-over......On Monday the 1st, we leave Seoul for Mongolia and hope to meet Maiah around 530pm, 530am your time. Yeah!!! Please be praying for all of us, especially Maiah at this time. We will be in Mongolia all week taking care of adoption paperwork and stocking up on cultural keepsakes for Maiah. Then its back to Seoul for Embassy paperwork before we can come home as "The Petrin 5". We are due back on 12Jan2006 but are hoping for a quick turn around with paperwork in Seoul and maybe coming home earlier. We will keep you posted.

Bryan & I had the awesome opportunity of being up with the Petrin's this morning to see them & the HUGE suitcases off---filled with everything you could think of for the other children.
Stacy was checking around to make sure nothing important was left behind, after rearranging Maiah's room to make it beautiful (again...) D was packed & ready to go as his cool calm self & here I am along for the ride, but thanking God for giving his family strength---along with his HUGE step of faith for the family look---GOD HAS IT ALL UNDER CONTROL.....Nate with the skater look & HUGE backpack & Katylin---cute as a button (yes at 430 in the morning she is still cute !), snuggling with Maiah's bear that she is taking to her...
As they walked thru security, God's peace was there...as they started the journey of bringing Maiah home...With lots of love, joy & Fun....
Should we pray for them to be able to help Maiah transitition...or for Maiah !!!---as she becomes part of the crazy, fun filled, earth shattering, God fearing family----Maiah has no idea what she's in store for!
Thanks for sharing Aimee! I dreamt all night that I was packing to go with them. I'm not excited or anything! :)
