Okay....so we are not much closer to home, but we are on our way! PRAISE GOD! Yesterday was such a tough day....all four families were given the all clear from the doctors that we were chicken pox free (enough) to travel. Of course right after that, Eme started getting some dots, lol! She doesn't seem to have any more today, so maybe it is nothing. If she has them, we'll be sure to invite everyone to a pox party at our house...do people even still do that? I just can't believe that chicken pox was a big deal....it never occurred to us that it could cause a problem. Anyway, we took the oath at the consulate and waited a very long time for Eme's visa but finally were able to get back to the hotel to pack. One of the other families flying through Chicago today was told their flight was cancelled so they have to spend an additional TWO days in Beijing waiting for another flight. Pray for them.....everyone is soooo ready to go home!
So, yesterday I had the biggest headache that just wouldn't quit! It made traveling a bear....but John was a trooper, and we were able to get packed and to the airport. Our wonderful CCAI rep, Grace, stayed with us forever at the airport to make sure we were checked in correctly with our bags checked all the way home (yes, that was scary....we might have been saying goodbye to those forever!).
Eme slept the entire way from GZ to Hong Kong with few meeps or peeps. Right now she is just making lots of noises while sitting on the bed. It's so funny because the first day she was with us she barely made any sounds at all. Now she talks all time - just like us!
I talked John into NOT posting pics so I could post them! Isn't he sweet? Of course he'll probably figure out some way to do it from the plane...illegally....ha ha....as long as it doesn't keep us from getting home!
Please pray we can get home with little trouble because of the snow storm....and that Eme is done with stinky, blow out diapers!
