Happy Easter everyone......
These are pictures that Emmie took yesterday with her camera while we were out touring as well. Andrew had a very hard time. If he lost sight of me he started to cry. While we walked along, he had to hold my hand in the stroller while David pushed him. While this is hard to see, it does make my heart soar because I think he is bonding to me. As soon as we got out of the big crowds he would smile and look at the people in our group as well. He loves riding the big tour bus. He sits right by the window, points to all of the things he see's, looks at me and talks in Chinese.....lol.....and I say Yes....I see! lol What else am I suppose to do? ;)
Emmie and Andrew....she can't get enough of him.

good fortune and a healthy life.
No editing on this picture at all, SOOC, which shows just how heavy the smog is here.

Our tea ceremony. This was so much fun. We tried 3 different tea's and had to go through the whole process of how to officially drink the tea, pour it into our little cups and even hold the cups properly. Oh...and the tea had to be drank in 3 sips. It's all about good luck, good fortune and good health. Andrew drank his tea as well. Priceless to see him do that.
Emmie is all about the local Chinese children. She can't keep her eyes off of them. She has already told everyone in the group that she will adopt many children one day. And you know what?????? I believe her! ;) We also have a Pastor traveling in our group, and at 1pm we are gathering as a group in their room to rejoice in our Lord and Savior on this very glorious day. Then, this afternoon we are going to the acrobatic show. We ventured by taxi to the local Walmart today for some more food and water. I love going out here.....it is always and adventure. With the crazy traffic and the gazillion people that are here, it is never a dull moment once you step outside of the hotel.
Happy Easter again......and sending hugs and kisses to my babies,
family and friends back home.

Happy Resurrection Day! God has redeemed yet another child from orphan to belonging!
Andrew is certainly blessing your life, isn't he?
I have tears of joy for you and your family. Andrew truely belongs with you. As for the night terrors, I hope they are subsiding. I lived (still do 3 years later) with them. I always put water on my girl's wrist and hug her real close.

What a cute pucker picture!! As I look at your pictures, I just think about how many requests for pictures Emmie must be getting each day. What gorgeous blonde, curly hair she has! And what a sweet and handsome little guy Andrew is!
Oh how I love Emmie's heart for adoption. May God bless her with the desires of her heart!
The pictures are all so wonderful!!! I am really enjoying your journey. I pray for you all the time {{{hug}}} Night terrors are hard. Livi went through a stage and they do outgrow them...hang tough my friend.
Happy Easter!!!
I love, love, love the photos. You all look so happy. I know you must miss your babies, Sophia and Daniel like crazy but you are just doing so wonderfully, Mama!
Enjoy every minute of your time there with your beautiful dream boy!
