Ready, Set, and Go Home

Well, the last few days have been eventful to say the least. First, we found out that Chloe had Roseola, a childhood virus that results in high fevers for several days and then ends with a rash. She now is feeling much better! We even had the chance to take the girls to the Hanoi Water Puppet show last night, and they both loved it. Chloe decided that she plans to be a water puppeteer when she grows up, and Quynh was literally leaning on the seat in front of us in order to get a better view during the show.

Today brought more excitement. We had our visa appointment this afternoon, and Gabrielle Quynh received her visa tonight at 6:00pm. We called our travel agent, and we're leaving on an 8:00am flight for Beijing, and we'll catch the 6:00pm flight for DC. We're packing wildly right now and are excited about going home tomorrow morning.

What an amazing journey we've had over the past few weeks. We feel blessed for our time here in Vietnam, and especially for our daughters. It still thrills us to realize that we now have two daughters both with incredibly fascinating birth countries. We look forward to traveling to Asia with them both again in the future. Now, it's time to head home and get into a routine.
