Day 11&12

Day 11
Sunday was a tough day! Annie Kate was having some separation anxiety and cried a lot of the day. Coming to a new hotel and new bed most likely confused her. We were both very homesick yesterday and felt like we couldn't take one more day in China! This is a long journey but it is all worth the hard days to have our precious baby girl! God doesn't promise easy but he does give us the strength to get through anything! We are so thankful to our Father for holding our hand through this process.

Day 12
We are happy to report that everyone woke up joyful and refreshed today! Praise God! Today we went to get her visa photo and have her medical exam. Annie Kate did fantastic. Our entire group did great. They have been such a blessing and great support. She past all 3 medical stations,Thankfully Annie Kate is under 2 no TB blood test.  Here are a few good pictures. One of the doctors looks like he is ready for surgery, he's actually just checking her ears and throat.






Tonight we are going on Pearl River Cruise with our group to celebrate no more paperwork. Should be fun!!

  2. Only a few more days until you get home. I understand how you feel and how you are longing for home. Praying for you as you enjoy/endure the last few days in China. Wasn't that rainbow building (forgot the name) on the river cruise SO cool?
