Last night in Guangzhou

Rain, rain go away. It has been raining for 2 days. It even rained out the dinner river cruise we were supposed to take last night. Today we finally asked if we could swim in the rain just to get out of the room for a while. Cabin fever. I guess it is good that we did not have any plans today because Drew has been in bed all day. He must have gotten what Devin had. It has lasted longer than Devins though. Pray that he will feel better tomorrow. Today at 4pm we finished up all of the paperwork we are to do here. It is all finished. Hallelujah. Now just to get her home. We fly back to Shanghai tomorrow. After a night at the hotel there we start the grueling 15 hour flight back to Detroit. Once we set down on US soil there she will be an official US citizen. Then 2 short flights after that we will be back in Tallahassee. We cannot wait for that moment. Don’t know how much more we will be blogging about the trip. Time and internet access will be against us from now on. Pray for our safe travels back to the US. We will see everyone soon.

  3. I pray for you all to have a safe trip back. EmmaLin has been given the best gift of all to become a member of a loving family like yours. When she gets older she will cherish this blog and will never doubt your love for her it will be her favorite keepsake. I cannot wait to meet her. May God bless all of you !!
