Paperwork is Good!
Poor Guohua - had to have 4 shots today. But she weathered them well and now is off swimming with Bob and Anna. We got the call today that the consulate appointment went well so all is official. Tomorrow we do the ceremony! God has worked out everything so well. It is so interesting with an older child. Guohua is not just along for the ride or responding to gentle words as a baby might. She is making choices every day to take steps toward us, to let us love her and to love us. To choose to be happy even while she misses her friends, to try new things and see new places, to build family memories with us.

So glad that it all worked out! Many of your comments are reminding me of the experiences of other families in our group who adopted older children. Praying that God continues to bless your time together!

you're right - a little sad to see some of the animals. though better than I expected with some open areas for roaming around for some of them and it was clean. The animals were more lively than I expected given the heat too. Definitely not like US zoos where you can't feed the animals - got some great shots of the bears 'cause people were feeding them - but felt a little guilty knowing it wasn't good for them! Thanks for your encouragement - it's fun to hear from you! And the prayers are definitely working.
So glad to hear that everything is going well!!! We are continuing to lift you up in prayer and can not wait to see you all soon!!!!!

We were uable to get your blog to update since you left Harbin. It was good to see all the days we missed. The pool at the White Swan was a highlight for us too. Have you seen the boats and the sky at night? What a sight! Guo Yuan has started school, so now she waits to see Guo Hua. She sends her love and wants Guo Hua to know she is very excited to see her. Love to all Cheryl
We are so happy to hear that you are all enjoying you're time together as a family. We love the pictures of you and you're beautiful family ! Can't wait to see you all and to meet GuoHua.
With lots of love and prayers,
Sue & Pete
