Gotcha day

Well its Sunday night 9pm as I type, we have been to Great Wall today, Forbidden city, and a shopping market. Many, Many, Many, people in China, did I say lot's of people. Flight over was very good (smooth) we all slept good last night and again, had a big day today.

Tomorrow is our big day, We fly out of Bejeing 8am into Nanjeing 10am, check into our motel and get to go met Anna Grace at 2:30. I have so many emotions running through my head and Audrey and Allison are the same. Allison is, well she's being Allison just about to make herself sick she is so excited. We will post pics and hopefully a video tomorrow. Please pray for us tomorrow!

 

Love,

Thanks to all!

As we are on the eve of going to get our little girl I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who have helped us in this process, all of you who have prayed for us, and all who have done and said so many nice things to us. You all know who you are. But most of all, I want to thank God, that he has chosen us to be the parents of this little precious girl. What a undeserving gift we have recieved. I just wanted to post a few words and give Him ALL the honor and praise. He has been so merciful to me and my family, most of all because he has ADOPTED us into his family. I had a good friend who has adopted twice tell me the other day that through the adoption process God allows you a small glimps at what its like to be Him. He gives you a love for sombody and you bring them into your family as one of you, no matter what color, what age, physical problems, mental problems, behavior problems, ect. Adoption!! what an amazing picture of God's love!! Many of you out there are called to adopt, pray, seek God, and jump in the deep water, you will be blessed beyond measure. And if you already thinking about it and want more info a great book out there by Russel moore title " Adopted for Life" Thanks again for everything! And again to our awesome God!!
We love all of you,
Mark T.
