Thank you for all your prayers

Mishiah is doing much better today. She slept through the night with little coughing and seemed to be feeling a lot better today. She has even cracked a few small smiles and is starting to babble a bit. We still have a long way to go in the bonding process so we'll need continued prayers on that front as well.

In about 12 hours (10 am China time) we will head to the airport again....this time to fly to Guangzhou. Our guides had to wait for 10 hours today, but they eventually were able to obtain all of the childrens' passports, so now we are able to embark on the final leg of this process. The remaining paperwork must all be completed in Guangzhou.

Here are a few more photos:



Another local wanting their picture taken with us....guess this is as close as we'll ever get to being famous...


At the Zhengzhou Aquarium:
 


Pics with the Nanyang Orphanage Director (she oversaw the foster program in the area and was the person who brought Azriah to us and handed her to Megan about two and a half years ago....in the exact location we are standing in the photo):









Washing clothes in the bathtub (no laundrymats).  They charge per article of clothing (on average $4/item)....so a couple of travel packs of Tide saved us about $300:







A portable clotheslines....all you need is a roll of fishing line:)
