One Week From Today...

One week from today, we will be nervously waiting.
One week from today, we will sign several papers taking guardianship of a little girl whose adoption will be completed the next day.
One week from today, we will try to contain the excitement that has been building up in us as we prepared for this day.
One week from today, a nanny will walk Julia into the room and bring her to us.
One week from today, Julia's world will be turned upside-down. We know it's for the better; she may not.
One week from today, Julia will hear the words, "Wo Ai Ni" (I love you) from her new mama and baba.
One week from today, this journey that we thought we were already on will finally begin.
One week from today, there will be one less orphan in the world.
