The Day After




Today, Monday May 14th was a great day! Lots of smiles from Ellie (for Vicki)! Vicki has captured her heart and only needs to walk away for two seconds and come back to receive joyful expressions from Ellie.

Ellie went to bed at 9 PM last night and woke up at 1:30 and 4:30, stayed awake until 8 AM and then slept until 12 noon, and took a one hour nap from 6-7 PM.

Vicki spent her second whole day in the hotel room bonding (and bonding well) with the baby while Kendra and Scott went to visit the Great Wall of China. The high steep steps totally exhausted both of them, and they were only able to manage 1,192 of the them before heading back down. They also visited a jade factory, a great Chinese restaurant, a Tea factory, a souvenir shop, and passed by a couple of Olympic stadiums.

Tomorrow evening we fly to Ellie's province. It will be her first flight so please pray for her ears especially. We don't know what our internet situation will be there but we will make new posts as soon as we can.

Thanks again for your prayers on our behalf!

You all look so happy! Ellie must think she is in Heaven with the same smiling,loving people with her each time she opens her eyes!

Your narrative about her laughing made me cry, you have made Ellie so happy in such a short time. Bless all of you and safe travels.

We will have William over to play next week.
