Today was our last full day in Guangzhou. We mostly shopped for a few last minute things. I am trying to collect some "homeland" gifts for Lia Kate that we can give to her over the years. We also received Lia Kate's passport and visa, which was our last official business. We are free to go home now. We had our last dinner out with our good friends, Laurie, Brandon and YaYa, as well as with some new friends we have made in recent days. The picture is of the moms and daughters after dinner. Today is also my and Danny's 5th wedding anniversary! Our anniversary gift is that we get to come home a day early! More on that soon... |

Emily, I have enjoyed reading your blog and all the updates of Lia Kate's progress. Your blog has been so heartwarming and inspiring to me and I am sure to all who have read it. God is so wonderful and it is so nice to read about all his wonderful blessings. Happy Anniversary and happy travels on the way home. I know you can't wait to be a big happy family of 4. Look forward to meeting Lia Kate in church soon.

Too precious -- Lia Kate, Christmas, redemption (in all its meanings), your anniversary!
May the tenderness and poignancy of these moments always burn in your hearts as you see the face of the Christ Child in your child's face every day.
My love,
Aunt Peggy
