Today was our last full day in DC and we were so lucky that DOug had no meetings so we were all able to spend it together. It started off pretty lazy - everyone just hanging in the room, soing their thing!
Once we finally got moving, we headed over to Union station and met our friends again, Diane and her clan along with Tara, Moli and Grace - and Shannon joined us too. Shannon and her family are waiting to travel to adopt Jace who is from the same orphanage as Katie. It was raining - and with this many little kids, our indoor options are limited, so we boarded the double decker bus and took a tour - we also took up almost the whole back half of the bus!
The kids could have cared less about what they were seeing, but they had a good time on the bus! We had containment - and a chance to talk.
SOme of the braver (or crazy - you decide) of our group decided to ride the top of the bus - rain and all
We head home tomorrow, once again reminded of the wonderful family that the Lord has created during this adoption journey. I continue to be amazed at how He has brought so many wonderful people into our lives to give us just what we need exactly when we need it. It is no accident, nor "coincidence" that the first agency I looked at was CWA and little did I know that not only would they help us bring our daughters home, but that we would be brought together with so many kind, amazing, fun friends!
