Comments & Emals

It's 4:30 am here and I can't sleep so, I decided to check emails. I am overwhelmed by all of the comments and emails wishing us well and offereing prayers and help. It means so much to read each one of them! Even though I'm on the other side of the world all alone, I am still conected to my friends!

In a few hours the breakfast bar will open and I'll be able to eat some real food! My flight to Nanning is not until 2:30. I will have Sunday evening and Monday morning to hopefully go to Wal Mart and lay in the supplies, then I'll get Olivia at 3 pm.

Sounds like everything is going well. Can you believe you are in China??? I am totally reliving my adoption through you now. I am so excited for you! Yes, you are right...you are connected to everyone...you are not alone. Hope your travel group is nice and supportive. You may want to look into getting a Panda phone at your hotel (ask your rep about it too). It's a cell you can travel with it and leave it at the hotel of your last destination. We had ours 2 weeks and used it quite a bit. I think our bill in the end was 100 plus dollars, but so worth it. It was great to be able to talk to family and for a lot cheaper than calling from the hotel.

you're probably chowing at the b'fast buffet right now! :) hope it is yummy!
SO glad to hear you're there safe and sound..and that room looks awesome-but ALL your rooms should look that way! :) AHH does do a really good job of putting us up in REALLY comfortable surroundings!

The Pampers in the Green package are pretty much like the diapers here. I hope you like the hotel breakfast buffet- eat well.
The room looks wonderful- and I hope the bed was as soft as you thought it was.
Have a safe and wondeful flight to your next destination.
Looking forward to reading about your GOTCHA Day!

So odd...you may not even remember me. Lucas played on Blake's team during fall ball. Somehow the link to your blog ended up in my junk mail folder. Didn't know what it was at first...I am sooo happy for you! What a lucky little girl Olivia is!! Just wanted you to know that we are all praying for you and can't wait to see more pictures of Olivia..she is absolutely adorable! Stephanie Yearwood

Lynn--
Michele let me know what was going on so I am going to be checking your blog often. (you are a much better blogger than I am!!) We just had a baby so I am emotionally crazy anyway...but WOW! What a roller coaster of emotions you must be on.
Look forward to seeing more of what is going on. Blessings on you and the journey

I have goosebumps reading your post! I have been praying that you made it safe and sound. It won't be long now! I have to admit when I saw the picture of your room, I wondered if that was a window into the bathroom, how funny! Have a great trip, you are going to do just fine, we are all praying for you and waiting eagerly to see little Olivia in your arms!

Prayers are with you from Kat, Olivia's Min sister and her momma. We are so happy for you to be there and so close to having Olivia in your arms forever.
Hugs, Vickie and Kat
