2 Days, 6 Days

We leave in 2 days and meet Maria Li in 6 days!!!!  I've got 2 suitcases packed, just 2 more to go.  The rest is mostly clothes.  The 1st 2 suitcases are Maria's clothes, donations to the orphanage and gifts to the nannies and our guides in China.  I've been to Wal-Mart an Target about 20 times the past few days.

The boys have a baseball game tonight and then start school tomorrow.  Kraig is taking off work tomorrow to help get everything ready to go.  Our flight leaves Thursday at 12:30.

We can't get to blogspot in China, but we'll send my sister updates and she will post them.  We'll try to do it about everyday, but we'll see how it goes.  China is 13 hours ahead of us here in KS.

Thank you all for your support, advice and prayers.  Please  pray for us as we continue this journey in China.  Also, pray for Maria Li and her huge transition into our family.

Better get back to cleaning and packing.

  1. I am so excited for you guys. We have dear friends who are leaving tomorrow as well. They will be in Guangzhou the same time as your family. They are adopting a little one from Henan. I am so glad Sonja "introduced" us so you could in turn find BAAS so you could in turn meet your sweet baby girl. I love to see how God works it all out for His glory. Praying you there and back again. Blessings, Misty
