Tomorrow morning, January 29th at 4:00am we will be loading the kids into the van and driving to the Des Moines airport to fly to the other side of the world to bring home our baby girl! The next time I blog I will be in China. We will be meeting Lilyia Sunday evening at 8:00pm (US time), but it will be Monday morning at 10:00am China time. Here is our itinerary while in China. Thanks to everyone for your prayers, we greatly appreciate them! We will be checking e-mail while in China, but the only e-mail address we will be able to check is johnpchristen@msn.com
