I remember it like it was yesterday; holding Bo on my lap as we taxied down the tarmac at Incheon International Airport in South Korea.
As we looked at the mountains surrounding us and the finals sights and sounds of this beautiful land... knowing that we were taking him away was such a bittersweet moment.
But about 12 hours into our flight, excitement mounted knowing he was going to get his first glimpse of America and would soon meet his brothers and sisters and the family and friends who have all loved him and prayed for him for 18 months.
Our friends Warren and Dave and Marianne drove up to Chicago to meet us. After anticipating the long non-stop international flight with a 19 month old, we just didn't know what kind of exhaustion we would have upon arrival and felt it would be wise to have someone drive us and our truck down from O'hare.
After going through immigration and Customs, it was such a blessing to see familiar beaming faces to greet us: truly warm memories we'll never forget!!
