A Fabulous Day in China!






Today was a GREAT day! Sophie is feeling 100% better and has perked up so very much! She is just a doll - a little firecracker! She is so very spunky and has a funny sense of humor already. We just spent the day totally enjoying her. Thank you for all of your many prayers and thoughts - it has been such a blessing to see her feeling better! We spent the day in the minority village and it was great! We saw all the many minorities in Kunming and the things they make and sell. It was a beautiful and wonderful place - truly the first sight seeing venture we have been able to be apart of because Sophia has been so sick up till now. Sophie is sleeping in her crib and taking a good nap in the afternoon (we are trying too). She has also totally taken to Adam - another prayer answered! We ate dinner with our traveling group again - they are just so great! We ate at a restaurant that one of the facilitators recommended - let's just say that there was "Yak Penis" as an appetizer - needless to say, we are still hungry! It was like many things "a cultural experience". We are also enjoying bartering with the street vendors - it is fun and challenging! We have gotten some good deals (or so we think!) We ended up hanging out with our new friends, Stacy and Paul and their little daughter Cana (the girls are from the same village and know one another well)- we have just grown so attached to them - it is going to be hard to see them go - although both of us are soooo thrilled to be back with our children at home. It is really hard. We miss Savannah, Tyler and Brayden so so so much! We can't wait to give them the biggest hug and kiss when we see them! Sophie will LOVE her new brothers and sister! Can't wait to be home! Kunming has been so great and we plan to see Sophie's finding place tomorrow - which will be hard to see - we are so in love with this girl! We are so blessed!
