Amazing Story!

Here is something awesome to tell you. My mom's friend has a friend who adopted from Hefei City, where Jon is from and they took a picture of Jon. They took the picture because the little girl they were adopting was friends with Jon. As you can see from the picture if you look closely, he looks confused and sad because she is leaving. The picture was taken April 15 - just 13 days ago! So, I have the picture below. I hope you enjoy it.

Getting ready to go!

I am excited because we are going in exactly 8 days. I am nervous, excited, and relieved. I haven't exactly started packing my clothes yet, but I have time. My parents are leaving for Mexico tomorrow at 4 a.m. and won't get back till Saturday. Then, we will have three days (Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday) before we go on Wednesday. So, it will be a little busy before going to China, but we are all happy to be going. I will keep you updated, because this may be the last time I am on the blog before we are in China. Keep us in your prayers!

Now, here is a great Bible verse.
Psalms 103:12, "As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us."


I was also just telling my mom that I decided to read Romans. If you don't have a devo, that is an AMAZING book to read. I am only on chapter 3 and I LOOOOOOOVE it so far. It is a loaded book with lots of information.

Here is a quiz for you to take if you want.

1. When you are bored, what do you like to do?
2. If you could have any animal (cheetah, monkey, etc.) from the wild as a pet, what would it be?
3. What are you doing right now? (besides looking at this blog!)
4. What's your favorite TV Show? Why?

Now here is an awesome pic of a carved watermelon. I was amazed and you will be too!

New pic of Jon!

Hi everyone,
Sadly we are not in China yet. But, we could go April 30th. We also found a new pic (just taken yesterday!) of Jon on a website about his orphanage. He is very cute. Here he is.
