Last Day in China!



As much as I would love to make some profound post on our last day here in China, sorry but I am wiped out ;) You will just have to wait until we get home to find out any more stuff about our trip to China. The great news of the day is that our baby Faith is officially free to come to the US and be home with us FOREVER!! We took the official oath today to never leave or abandon this sweet baby girl. We leave the hotel tomorrow morning at 6AM, that would be 5PM Thursday night for you guys. Please say some special "easy flying" prayers for us. We can't wait to be home!!

Here are some pics from the spice market last night and some from today at the consulate and then some are of our baby girl actually eating something solid...ice cream! She is obviously a STRAIGHT :)

Praying for your safe flight home. I can't help but think of the doll you and Sheila loved to play with at Grandmother's house, The Big Baby. Love Nana

Praying for a smooth trip back. I am not sure if I am going to be able to come to the airport now. Autumn has not been feeling well and I don't think Tommy will get home in time. But I can't wait to meet Faith. Love Ya! Sheila, I am sure you are as excited to get back home to your family as they are to have you home. Seems like you guys have been there for a loooonnnng time! Love Yall - Rhonda

Good Job Ya'll!!! You have made it! It is 9;30 pm here just checking to see if you have add a new blog? Our Prayers are with you. I asked God to Put his hands on the pilots hands , and to help the kids to have a fun flight home. Everyone is tired and maybe You can get some good sleeping in on the Plane. God Bless You all.
