Well, today is Thursday. One day before we leave, and we are starting to get a little frantic. Ran is excited about the BIG sleep over at ConCon's and Hannah's. We celebrated Ran's 5th birthday on Sunday, and boy does she think she is a big girl now. She wants baby sister to sleep with her also. So, we will see how that goes when we return. If, it works out that would be great....... She has her big ballet recital Sunday that we are going to miss. It is "A Mini Nutcracker" production. How sweet she will be in it. We are just about packed and ready to go. I think Jerry has bought the grocery store to go with us on this trip. Any and every dry good that will travel, he has bought it, and I have packed it....somewhere. Not sure what to take for babysister, since we are not getting a update before we leave. So, we are just kinda of winging it, on that part of it. If she needs something, that we don't have, we can always buy it in China. Well the wondering part of what she looks like now is just about over........come Monday we will finally have our forever daughter in our arms, finally. After waiting for 27 months, that is long enough! But, the Lord knows what He is doing, not us. Again I want to give him the thanks and glory for letting this happen for us. Thank you Lord!!!!! We love and bless you with our lives, may we be a living sacrifice for you. Just received the hotel info on where we will be staying in Nanjing, check it out at

Okay..I was checking out the hotel.I don't want to hear that you went overboard at the bar and ended up being asked to leave the mahjong room because of your inappropriate behavior. Just remember that the rules still apply...even if your in a foreign country. Don't act like I did in the while I was in the Bahamas is all I'm saying :)
