...ooooI hope this posts...the only english on this screen is what i'm typing and 'Catherine's Little Sister' in the upper corner ^>^ ...so i hope it posts in english ;-)
We are great! TIRED, but great! It's Sat, Sept 22, just after 3pm here in Changsha, Hunan and we leave here in the a.m. for Guangzhoa! We are REALLY ready to get to this final leg. Things are good:
Mom is AMAZING and a PRICELESS help and support and JOY!!! I only PRAY i can do for Catherine and Elizabeth as she has done for me!
Catherine is a GREAT big sis! She's of course jealous, but LOVES entertaining Elizabeth and reall yis a good help! She's not getting enough exercise, so ran like a crazy woman when we got to a park w/ the group today.
Elizabeth MayLin Turnage is a delight! She's got a thick cold right now, so she's a little testy. But she's showing us that she'll be just the kind of sister that Catherine needs :-) We hope to post another pix sometime after we get to Guangzhoa.
Tonight we get the girls' Chinese passports with their American names in them, then one more stop in the Washington, DC of adoptions: Guangzhoa to get their physical exams and then their American visas, then we are OFF.
...Fun Elizabeth tricks: she blows her nose whenever she needs...whether you are ready or not! ^>^
...and she shakes her head and giggles and smiles HUGE whenever she sees Catherine play peek-a-boo over the back of the chair in the restaurant - like "i can't believe this is MY sister"!
Yall's prayers have been amazing supports for us! Thank you all for these and your notes too! Don't stop!
Blessings and love to you all!
L!
...for Catherine, Elizabeth, and Mom too!

What a beautiful family! Y'all have been busy with your appointments and sightseeing. I am glad Catherine and your mother are able to be with you and Elizabeth. I know they are both a tremendous help to you.
I look forward to reading your next post!
