Journey to JADE

This is our incredible journey to adopt our daughter You Fu Rong from Youyang China. We call her Jade. She has been living in the Youyang Childrens Welfare Institue with wonderful caregivers. We could not have gone through this journey without all the faith and prayers of family and friends and welcome you to join with us in China as we bring her home to her forever family. "The Lord had one great things for us, and we are filled with joy". Psalm 126:3

WE MADE IT TO CHINA


HELLO FROM BEIJING. We finally made it and what a long day. We arrived at our hotel at about 10:00 p.m. Monday the 17th. We are tired and a bit nauseated (Well I am) The last flight from Toyko to Beijing was extremely bumpy. There were many on the flight that tossed our pretzels and drink. We met up with 2 other couples at the airport one of which is also going to Youyang. Their daughter is only a few weeks younger than Jade. It will be so nice our girls to have a friend they are familiar with after we get them. We are now going to bed to catch a bit of sleep before we wake up at 6:45 am to have breakfast and go on a tour. We will be going to the Great Wall, The Forbidden City, and Tiennemen Square. I believe we will be having peeking duck for dinner. Yum Hum?? Bailey, Kyle and Landon we miss you already but bet you are having fun. While we are sleeping you will be going to book club. Have a good time and watch out for each other. We love you and will post again tomorrow to tell you about our sightseeing. Nighty Night. It is so cool to be so close to Baby Jade. Only a few days and she will be in our arms. Can't wait.
