Today we went to a very large, beautiful park on a lake. It had a lot of children's rides, like what we have at carnivals. Danna Faith loved it. So did Brady - HA - as you can see from one of the pictures. The things you will do for little sisters. Sarah Catherine loved riding in a stroller. She laughs a lot, and the older Chinese women can't keep their hands off of her. They love to make her laugh and touch her chubby cheeks. They always talk about her smile and her eyes. We really had a good time. Two of our CHI families adopted older children. Lucy is 11 and Sam is 10. They speak very little English. I so admire these two couples. Lucy was only 2 years away from being sent out of the orphanage. I won't go into it here - but if they are not adopted by 13 - what happens to most of them is beyond what we can comprehend. Please keep all these orphans in your prayers. Also pray that the Lord gives these adoptive parents what they need for these children. Danna Faith really took to Lucy, and Lucy was very good with her. We have paperwork to do this afternoon. Tomorrow we go back to Shaiman Island. Not too much longer, and we will be heading home. We love and miss you all.
