"I didn’t give you the gift of life
But in my heart I know
The love I feel is as deep and real
As if it had been so.
For us to find each other
Is like a dream come true.
No, I didn’t give you the gift of life;
Life gave me the gift of you."

This is it the last full day in China !

We have a list we need to accomplish :
- confirm our flights
- pick up the visa from the U.S. Consulate
-go to the post office to mail a 10 kg package home ( it is cheaper than paying overweight luggage at the airport)
-go to Jordon's place to pick up Elliott's name written in Chinese and the meaning of his name.
- Taylor to deliver my custom made Asian style jacket
-pictures of Elliott on the Red Sofa in traditional chinese outfit.
-photos with our guide Lucy

We were able to complete the list! We are ready to come home.

We have one more overnight sleep and in the morning we have luggage pick up at 8 am and leave the hotel at 8:30 A. M. to go to the airport.

Our next post will be from home.
Please pray for safe travels for us. We look forward to seeing you and introducing you to Elliott !

Daddy, Ethan, Emily & Evelyn I can hardly wait to see you at the airport on Friday evening !!

Get Ready, Get Set, Here we come home with our son and baby brother !!

Love ya,
Elliot and Mama
