Visa received!!

We have to say goodbye to our pool today! We have really enjoyed the pool every time we have come. It's fun to see all these Caucasian parents with their Asian children. Callie has become more of a fish this week. Sydney loves to play with Elsa and Ava in the pool. And Emma has gone from being scared of and hating the pool and the bath to loving it!! It's so fun to watch her open up! I am also including some pictures of the breakfast buffet that we ate at every day. Sorry girls, no more big breakfasts any more! :) There is also a picture of the chandelier in the front entry way. It's huge!

Matt and Sydney went on another adventure during nap time today to an ancient king's burial chamber that the hotel found when they were doing construction. It is over 2100 years old!

Getting Emma's visa today was just wonderful, along with the stack of paperwork that came along with it. No more paperwork!! Whoo Hoo! Our little girl can come home with us now! She isn't actually a US citizen until she touches US soil. That will happen in Newark, NJ.

We are pretty much packed up and ready to take the train to Hong Kong tomorrow. We have something special planned to do for a celebration for Sydney's birthday tomorrow in Hong Kong. It is a surprise and she is going to flip out! Can't wait to surprise her!

  1. Oh, Lori, it's such a blessing that you have let us enter into your journey to Emma with you. :) Thank you for letting us share in your joy. We just can't wait to hear more from you in person. ♥ Praying for your safe trip home, and anxious to hear more about Sydney's Birthday surprise in Hong Kong.
