We went to breakfast and then decided to take a walk along the
river. It was rich with culture early in the morning. There were
a lot of people doing Tai Chi, women dancing with fans, and
people doing exercises with swords. It was amazing! There were
also people playing instruments and singing! We taped it for
Reagan; she slept through it all. Actually, she slept most of
the day. She isn't feeling well at all today! Her fever has gone
back up really high and she is very lethargic. We took her down
to the pool again to see if we could cheer her up and to get her
fever down. She loves the water, but she didn't get very lively
today. She did splash a little, but not much. When we got back
to the room, she slept hours and hours. We woke her up and fed
her and gave her Tylenol for her fever. Then she threw it all
up. Afterwards, we went on a riverboat tour. We had planned to
go, but then after Reagan was sick, we thought that maybe we
should keep her in. Then we thought that it just might be good
to get her out of this room and in the fresh air. The tour was
great! The city looks beautiful from the boat, especially at
night with all of the lights. Reagan slept through the whole
thing.
When we got back to our room, we gave her Motrin, Zithromax, her
inhaler, and steroids. Praise God, they all stayed down! We then
were able to get her to eat about half a bottle of formula and
keep it down. She went right back to sleep afterwards. Please
continue to pray for her. Just when we think that she is getting
better, she relapses. It is frustrating and worrying. When her
fever is up, she just pants. It is really heartbreaking! We hope
that she gets all better soon! Well, that is about it for
tonight. We are tired and are going to bed. We know that Reagan
is in the palm of God's hand and that He will take care of her!
We miss and love you all!
Ashton and
Kieron,
Boy, do we miss you! You would have loved the riverboat tour!
There were lights everywhere! The boat had 3 levels to it. Our
table was on the bottom level. We were able to walk around, and
we walked to the open top deck. You could see the city all along
the river! It was beautiful! We also met a little girl at the
pool today who was 7 years old. She was adopted from China when
she was 10 months old. She was back with her parents to adopt a
little brother who is 4. You would have loved to play with her.
She was very sweet! Well, we are off to bed and you are off to
church! WE MISS AND LOVE YOU SO MUCH! It isn't long now until we
are all together!
