GOD IS GOOD!!!!!!
The last 24 hours have shown such a tremendous change in our daughter that I know it was your prayers and God's goodness that have helped bring about the change in her we have seen.
Emilie has started to show us the sweet little girl we knew she was. She laughs, smiles and plays with her toys some now, where all she did before was cry. Lisa and I have been taking steps to break the bungee chord that she has attached to Lisa and she even will let daddy hold her for a few minutes now. (but only when Lisa is in the room.) Small victorys, but we are getting there.
Today our guide took us out into the countryside where we visited a farmming village. We got to go into a farmers house and meet his family. The people in the village were wonderful, but let me tell you we all have a real appreciation for what we have in America because most of these people here have so little.
This afternoon after Lisa and Emilie wake up from their naps, we plan to go explore the streets around the hotel a little bit. That should be an experiance. Let me tell you, the traffic in China is organized chaos. We are all amazed that not more people are killed around here. Our bus drivers have been the best.We have all agreed that they could put Nascars's best to shame with their ability to drive fast and in traffic.
Thank you for all your prayers, please keep them coming. We have crested the hill with Emilie but still have the long road down the other side to go.
Steve and Lisa
