Last night we went out for dinner with another couple and their baby. We stumbled across a French restaurant in a train car. It was really quaint and the food was great. It was nice to take a break from Chinese food.
This morning we took an optional tour to a Buddhist Temple and some other sites in Guangzhou. Hope did great until the end. She was ready to get back to the hotel and sleep. She has been sleeping like a rock since. Later this afternoon, I will be spending about 1 1/2 hours with my travel group filling out all of the documents necessary for Hope's visa. I am looking forward to the day when I am finished with all of the crazy paperwork!!!

ReplyDeleteI can't believe you'll be home in a week! Thanks for updating so often, I love all of the pictures. She is such a beautiful little girl! I'll be praying for the trip home!

ReplyDeleteSarah,
ReplyDeleteI tried to post several days ago, but it never took my comment. Anyway, I have been following right along, and am thrilled for you and your family! And I am so excited to actually get to see Hope. She is just adorable! And I read a previous comment that the crying is good, and a book that I just read about attachment, said the exact same thing, that the ability to express sadness, is a good thing, or frustration, and it is when they don't do anything, that you need to be concerned....so this is good, but never easy, I know!! Be encouraged sister, God is with you and for you in this! So admire your beautiful family!! Love to you!
Julie
