Chelsea's Help International

Introducing: Chelsea’s Help International – Helping Orphans in China We had fun playing with the kids at the Zhongshan Childrens Welfare Institute (ZCWI). The ZCWI is one of 56 orphanages in the province of Guangdong . The ZCWI is home to over 300 children. We wanted to do something for the place that gave Chelsea a home for the first 2 years of her life. We plan to send shipments over a couple of times a year. We want to start by sending soccer balls to our friends at the ZCWI. If you would like to help, send your contributions to: CHI PO BOX 2633 Ruston, LA 71272. We would like to send by April 1, 2013. Thanks for sharing.

Dear Chelsea,

     Merry Christmas!  We can't wait to share with you what Christmas is.  We leave one week from tomorrow to come get you!  In 12 days you will be with us FOREVER!  Love you sweet girl and we can't wait to get you home.

We had a great Christmas.  I can't wait for Chelsea to come home and meet her great-grandparents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins! We are so blessed.  Merry Christmas!

New Pics!

We received new pictures today! Can't believe how much she's grown (and her hair) since October! One month from today she will be with us. Can't wait!















This is my first post from the iPad app. Got to get all my gadgets ready for posting in China. Hopefully it will work.

Leaving January 2, 2013

Things didn't work out as we had liked in getting our Consulate Appointment so we will not be leaving until January 2nd.  I have spent the last couple of days on the phone with the agency trying to change that but, oh well.  We are very excited to go get Chelsea and bring her home.  January 7th she will be with us forever.  That's a month from tomorrow:)

TRAVEL APPROVAL!!!!!!!  I'm a few days late getting this post up but we received our TA on November 30, 2012!  Finally our Timeline is complete.  We were really hoping to have Chelsea home for Christmas but are so excited that she will be with us forever before the end of the year!  I posted on Facebook when we received our TA and had so many sweet messages from friends and family.  Thank you all so much for your support and prayers through this journey.  We are sooooooo close!  We have lots to do and learn before we go.  So off to work I go.
