Leaving China: Friday, June 1, 12

It's hard to believe this journey is coming to an end. This morning we gathered in the hotel garden for group pictures. How strange that this group that has been together for three weeks for one of the biggest events in our lives, are now going our separate ways, back to normal life( as if life with a two year old will be normal). It's been a blessing to get to know each family and witness the miracle of adoption in each life. I look forward to hearing wonderful things about each child in the future. As for us, our agency has arranged a van for the three hour ride to Hong Kong this afternoon at 4:30. We stay overnight at an airport hotel and then fly out in the morning at 10:25 am to New Jersey with a connecting flight to Nashville. PRaying for a safe and peaceful flight. I know it will be
much harder with a two year old, but we are keeping the end in sight... our boys wonderful hugs and laughter and seeing Laikyn for the first time through their eyes.
