Goodbye Guangzhou!

I can't believe it's time to say goodbye to China once again. This journey started just about a year ago, seemed to take sooooo long, and before you know it, it's over and done.  Not really though, right? The best part is just beginning.

We have so enjoyed our time here this trip.  It is a huge mix of emotions to start packing up tonight. We are so ready to be home. But, at the same time, we are taking one from the only home she has ever known. Tomorrow, as we land in Atlanta, every smell, taste, sound and face will be new to Lynli.

We pray that her heart be guarded, that she understands a little, and that she continues to trust us. Her adjustment so far has been incredible and we pray that continues with the next big step...

The next time I write, it will be from the comfort of my family room sofa. :)  Thank you all for your prayers, words of encouragement, and love.

I'll leave you all with pics from a little photo shoot we did today....

This was taken Tuesday at our Consulate appointment. Our paper work is complete, oath taken and Lynli Grace will become a citizen of the US when her feet touch the ground in Atlanta.

All my precious babes...

These two are becoming buddies... slowly, but surely. :)

My firstborn love. The oldest and caretaker of all. 

Sweetness. Fun.  He loves his sister so much, he hasn't stopped smiling since we arrived.

Strong. Joy. One incredible big sister. 

Tiny, but with a big personality. Brave. And beautiful.
