Yeah, Yippee!!!! It's almost time!!!! I am so happy for you! Jamie is just the light of our lives and I cannot wait for all my April buddies to feel this lucky! We stayed in Nanchang....let me know if you have any questions! Hugs & Safe travels.....
So for the rest of today and tomorrow you will be pacing the floors. Opening and closing doors to make sure everything is in order. Double, triple checking the car. I know you all to well. Love you and can't wait to see you on the 15th !!!

Girl I love you with all my heart and our dear father in Heaven is so watching over you, because your one of his dearest children. GOD BLESS you both during your travels.

I am very excited for you guys. You're about to have the trip of a lifetime, as Franceska completes her journey home.
I wish a very safe and wonderful trip for you.
It's going to be awesome!
HOLY MOLY!!!! I can't believe it is already time for y'all to go!!! That is SO SUPER EXCITING!!!! Love you!
Oh I really enjoyed the Chen Family Temple... it is amazing to see all the carvings on the roof there... I was a little annoyed my good camera had 'broke' the day before... I see can't get over that I am reading your itinerary..
Oh Kristy!! SO excited for you!! Just 2 more sleeps (and maybe 1 by the time you read this) and then you'll be off to China!!!
I've noted the time you'll be getting Franceska on Sunday and will wake up to pray for you and your precious baby girl...the girl God has chosen for you! God is so good!!
This is the first time i writte you, but i follow your blog since......i do not know when!.
i´m from Spain and this is our second adoption, now we have a little baby girl waiting for us in Guangdong, we will travel to Guangzhou on July 9, so probably i´ll see you on one off our walks!! ;-)
Have a wonderfull trip and an incredible gotcha day!!

Can't wait to follow your updates!

I bet you are getting situated in Beijing! Sorry I'm late on wishing you a happy send off.
Can't wait to hear some news. Hopefully you have someone posting for you on your blog.
Love and Hugs!!!!
Thought I would write this down here... don't want to get heckles up but have been thinking of you since your last post... that you aren't fussed on China... I can understand the thing I done... go in 'not' with a Western mind and remember that you are going to a place where everything is done different and there is a population that is SO huge and cultural very different... don't fight it... try to go with it as much as you can and enjoy the experience... I understand you are more of a 'family' person and would rather be home but I am saying this so you don't have 'negative' experiences to remember to tell Miss Franny... I love ya and want you to have a great (and positive) time... sure... somethings may not as you would like them but still, enjoy it and make great memories... just remember Franny, Franny, Franny... actually, Guangzhou is ALOT more laid back (ok I only was in that province) and alot of English spoken and catered alot for foreigners... Don't be mad at me or upset at me for saying this... just want you to have a great time... even though it is better at home... love and hugs... oh and CAN NOT WAIT to see Miss Franny... that rest of the trip is going to be a HUGE blur... you are really in for one big ride :) Hugs...
