It's Christmas Eve!!!!!

16 hours from now we will meet our daughter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We had a prayer and sharing time tonight with the families in our group and someone said it's like Christmas Eve and we agree. Tonight in our prayer time, people shared about their road here to China, and some of the stories were heartbreaking, encouraging and all around amazing. We "blamed" Steven Curtis Chapman for his influence in our lives and for his impact which led us on this road(and for the long wait---because he did influence so many people to adopt from China).
We had a great day of seeing what pre-modern China looked like, seeing the Forbidden City, Tienanmen Square and we lost a mother in law in T Square (she was finally found with our great search parties). By the way, Dave says T Square is huge. Actually Beijing is HUGE, really huge. There are over 16 million people here and we saw them all today + the 16 million other tourists that are here.
It's time for packing and sleep (if we can). We have to be in the lobby at 5:00 am local time to leave for our flight to Nanchang. KEEP PRAYING!!!
Tomorrow we will have lots of pictures of the most beautiful girl you have ever seen!!!!!!!
Love you all, mean it,
Dave and Angie
