Category Archives: China Trip So today was our LAST day in our son’s provence:(. So sad! Sad to leave this place he has known as home for 2 years—sad to leave our dear friends who we have been with for the last week…and sad to leave the cozy apartment and pack all 5 of us in a hotel for […]  Our day started BRIGHT and early as we wanted to get to the panda reserve early. When it gets hot the pandas go in so it’s harder to see them. We left around 7:30…meaning we had to actually wake the kids up–hard for this momma to do! We got there just after 8am and stayed […] I look forward to your posts everyday. I feel like I am there with you going through this adoption experience and it is so very, very precious. Reminds this widow of just how much our Heavenly Father loves me and wants me. It looks like things are going so well and that the transition is so smooth so far. Also looks like you are having a lovely time. Thanks for keeping all of us posted on all of God’s blessings for your family. those mother/son pictures made me weepy! so beautiful!!!! thank you for blogging while you’re in china – it has been such a gift to follow your journey. ((((hugs))))  So today started with a little Skype fun with two of my loves on the other side of the world… I miss these two:(. Only 7 more sleeps until we arrive home and we are finally ALL TOGETHER. Honestly, I could stay here or any where for that matter if all my chicks are with […] We are so excited for you! Your little man Zeke is quite the charmer! Lucky you! Lucky him! I know how you feel without your other two with you. A Momma just can’t have peace in her heart if all of her kiddos aren’t with her and safe. But you will have a lifetime to be together, and I know your little ones are safe and sound. You are such an amazing family! Praying for you all to keep healthy and have an awesome time while you are there! The Werners in Kansas  I didn’t take my camera with us yesterday to lesson the load as I have 25 extra pounds of sugar on my hip now;). We went to the Civil Affairs office yesterday. THEN after the Civil Affairs we trekked it across town to go to the notary office. LOTS of driving in a taxi. A […]  Today was more than I could have hoped for–and I’m in awe as I get ready to go to bed after our first night with Zeke how perfect today has been. It has been tear free–although naturally it took awhile for our sweet boy to warm up. We took lots of time and didn’t rush […] Sitting on the bench at an amusement park with tears in my eyes. So moved by your description of his first day with you…So thankful to be part of God’s incredible miracle of adoption! Oh the goodness of God is evident all over your update and photos! Yay, God! Continuing to pray! Oh my, HOW BEAUTIFUL is your son, Zeke?! Congratulations!!! Thank you for sharing your journey with the world. 😉 I’ve been waiting and waiting for THIS post, and I almost shouted out loud when I saw that your blog had been updated today. I’m SO thrilled to see your baby in your arms… of course I cried as I watched the slideshow, and now I just have a big ol’ grin plastered on my face. LOVE your family! Thank you for allowing so many folks to witness GOD IN ACTION. Our family will be praying for the Youngs, now a party of SEVEN – woohoo!!! 🙂 Wonderful news! So happy for you all! Enjoy! So wonderful to see your family now complete and you heart start to fill with Zeke. And each hour you grow together. This has been the ever best thing I have ever done, went through, or been apart of in my whole life so far! I think so much of you and your family as we get ready to leave GZ and the Garden Hotel tom. Knowing that you will be here the next day. It has been wonderful and the hotel is wonderful ( not sure your staying here) but a little warning if you are….the area you have to go out to get meals is very rough. I felt like I didn’t need to have my son out after dark here. “street woman” trying to touch him and homeless men that crawl on the streets grabbed two of the boys in our group. So just be careful and on guard of those things. I wasn’t. God bless yall….we will fly back to Shanghai tom and back home thurs morning. I’ll be thinking of yall and checking in. God Bless LaKasha mother of two finally ! YAY!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!! So excited and happy for ya’ll! Yes, great is His FAITHFULNESS indeed!!! 🙂 How wonderful!!! I am so happy for you and your family!!! The pure joy on your face is beautiful! Congratulations and so exciting to finally have Zeke in your family. Praise God for the glory you are bringing Him by caring for another orphan. A blessed boy. |
