We Made It

Saying goodbye is always hard!

As expected, Katie has been a fun travel companion. My only complaint- every time I tell her something, she has earbuds in & does not hear me.


Waiting to depart from Hong Kong to our final destination-Guangzhou, China!



Katie was here a little over 8 years ago when we were adopting Lilly. She is glad to be back. We already ran into our favorite guide ever- Elvin!!! Katie recognized him before we even got out of the van at our hotel. It was so good to see him!


Our 1st meal in China - The Coffee Club. Western style food by default because we could not find the noodle restaurant which is a favorite of adoptive families. Planning to venture back out this evening and hoping to have dinner there - now that we have better directions.

We meet Lucy tomorrow around 3.  Excited and nervous all at the same time. Praying that God gives Lucy strength and courage to leave all she has ever known and to part from her nanny into the arms of a stranger. Praying she learns to trust us quickly. Love speaks all languages and love always wins! And praying that Katie and I can get a full night of rest so we will be ready for the big day tomorrow. Thank you for your prayers and support!!!
