Day 12: Shopping



Today we went to a pearl and jade market. It was neat. I bought Leanne something special for when she grows up. Then it was back to the hotel for some more Christmas shopping. We are definitely tired of living out of a suitcase and ready to be home. We spoke with Sam and wished him luck as he is a wiseman in the children's Christmas program at church. We are sad to miss it, but look forward to watching the video. We are defintely counting the days down.


Here we are eating at Lucy's.

You guys look tired. When I read the blog today, I could tell that you are absolutely ready to come back to the states and share Leanne with everyone! You know that you will be local celebrities when you arrive! Everyone is going to want to catch a glimpse of your sweet baby girl. I know I am ready to see all of you! Try to rest up in whatever down time you have left...it is going to be a long trip home...I cannot believe that you will be going "back in time" on the day you are coming home! love you...blessings.

First, we can't believe you can get Sunkist in China! Second, we miss you and can't wait for you to come home. We're ready to see all four of you as a family! Sam did a great job in the program tonight. He was a great looking wiseman. I'll send a picture to your e-mail account.

We're praying for renewed strength and energy for you, safe travel, and God's comfort as you miss your sweet boy.

Love,
The Olivers

I'm so excited to get to meet the new addition to your family! I hope you're having fun, and Samuel did a great job last night!

Do you want me to post the video to youtube so you can go ahead and watch Samuel as the wiseman? If you do, just send me an e-mail and let me know!

Love you guys, and see you soon...
Adam

Leanne looks like she has always been with you both. Isn't it nice when our plans agree with God's plans? So happy for your joy.
J Jesus first
O Others second
Y Yourself last
Enjoy your JOY!
