One More Week!!!

One week from today, we will be leaving for China! I say that, but honestly I still can't believe it! I can't believe that, after all this time, all these years of dreaming about this, it's actually this close to happening! Yet somehow, even with all the happy excitement, I feel this strange peace and a calm that is very unlike me. I keep waiting for the calm to end and for me to start freaking out, but so far so good!

There is one bright spot to us having to wait so long to travel: it gave me 5 months to get ready so there is not much panic now here at the end!
