An hour away from meeting Mya for the first time!!!

I don't even have the words to describe how I am feeling right at this very moment. I'm sorry that I haven't blogged our day yesterday yet, but I will!
Last night as soon as we landed in Changsha, China, I began to cry. It is so overwhelming to think that we were now in the province as our new daughter! I also am very saddened and happy that last night was her very last night that she would lay her head down at the orphanage. Happy because we think the orphage is so horrible, but to Mya its all she knows and it is her comfort. We are taking her from everything she is used to and we , I think, are prepared if she completely hates us! I think I am ready!! Although, if she does react in a way that she is upset, then that tells me that she has been loved And That makes me very happy:)!
I am also mourning for her mother. The mother that gave birth to her. Although, I am sooo elated to have Mya as my daughter, her mother has to live with her decision everyday for the rest of her life. I respect Mya's mother very much for choosing to give Mya life instead ofe choosing the very easy choice of abortion. God has had His hand in this all the way back to when Mya was born on April 6, 2010!!!! What a wonderful day!! Mya shares a birthday with her great-grandma Shanks!!!!!
Please help us pray that God will ease all of our nerves and that we can enjoy every minute and every detail!!!!!!
I will post our "gotcha day" pictures later and while Mya is sleeping at some point, I will post about our great day that we had yesterday!!
May God bless you, Mindy
