Our Last Day in Guangzhou

It's our last day here at the White Swan and we are packing up and getting ready to fly home. Sorry that we haven't posted more. We have been very busy every day going from the breakfast buffet, then on to Starbucks for our afternoon Frappucino then we have to come back to the hotel so that we can rest up before ...you guessed it...dinner. They are going to have to roll us out of here.

Seriously, it has been a great trip and everyone is doing really well. Liza has a new boyfriend. His name is Joey and he's three years old. He and Liza are pretty tight. Wen passed his medical exam with flying colors and is doing great. He is in constant motion and into everything. We were telling him to sit down so much that we started chanting SIT DOWN NORM (for all you Mizzou fans). He also does some impersonations now. His favorite is of me. He puts on my glasses, shakes his finger and in a very nasal, Fran Drescher type voice, he yells "DON"T TOUCH." He thinks this is really funny.

Everyone has enjoyed our time in China, but I think Merrie most of all. So at ease and lighthearted. It has been wonderful for Tom and I to watch. We were so worried that this was going to be a difficult trip for her and it has turned out to be just the opposite. This has been a fantastic experience for our family and we will have wonderful memories for years to come. We have met so many incredible children and parents. Amazing people with amazing stories. It's truly an honor to know them.

Thank you again to everyone for your encouragement and continued support. Home soon!
