Travel to Zhengzhou

Today was travel day to get to Samuel's province. We took the high-speed train with two other families in our group.

The children were kept busy on the train by the gift of a tablet lent to them by one of the families--the Whittons. Thank you, sweet family!






When we arrived in the capital city of Henan (Zhengzhou), we were able to exchange some money and prepare for tomorrow's Gotcha Day.

Here is what welcomed us in our hotel:


Currently, Daniel is sleeping in the crib on the left. It has a side that folds down so a child can climb in and out easily. Daniel loves it!

So, we are on the countdown. We receive Samuel around 10 a.m. Monday (i.e. 10 p.m. Sunday, Eastern Time).

We would appreciate your prayers for Samuel as he goes through a very stressful day of change. Thank you!

By way of update: Daniel's fever subsided last night. Thank you for all the prayers! God answered your requests! Thank you!!

So happy to hear that Daniel's fever has subsided! The train looks like it would be a fun way to travel--how did Cherish do on that form of transportation? What a beautiful sight to behold in your room; even if there isn't a washer/dryer this time ;) Sending prayers to the whole family, as in 5 hours from now you'll be meeting little Samuel :)
