Getting ready for mei mei (little sister in Chinese)...

As we put the finishing touches on packing and head for China tomorrow, all of the kids are excitedly preparing for the arrival of their new sister, Emily!  

Caroline is especially excited about another girl in the house.  Emily and Caroline will be sharing a bedroom, and Caroline assures us, "Emily can sleep in my bed if she's scared...."

In the AM we're off to Nanchang!!!

What a picture of God's love for His people. Just as you are going after a child you have loved for so many months, one who does not even know you exist...God sent His Son to rescue us at our deepest need. As you are "paying the price" to bring Emily home and give her your name, "Fahy", remember that Jesus paid the price, the penalty for our sins, in order to bring us home to His and our Heavenly Father. Blessings as you go. Remember to use the blow up seat pillows on the plane! Love, Dolly
