Our tickets are purchased, Lizzie is flagged to come home with us, we're flying first class (thanks to donated sky-miles....THANK YOU!!), and I am getting packed. I crashed yesterday (luckily it was Sunday). I guess I pushed too hard on Saturday and my body wasn't quite ready, but this week will be full of packing, cleaning, and lots of help from the kids.
Sometimes I wish the kids were coming, but I've followed those who have done it both ways, and it will save money and give Jake and I more time to bond before meeting the kids. We hope to be able to go back in 5 years, before Josh leaves on a mission (I know, scary thought!) and tour. Lizzie will be almost 7 by then, and we can tour her city as well as Beijing and Xian (our favorite places we have visited). It is funny how the Lord pulls your heart to a country that you never dreamed you'd love! But, my daughter will be Chinese, and I love her people!!!!
