We're packed and ready to go

We got everything into 2 suitcases, 2 backpacks
and 1 carry-on bag. Combine that with 1 preschooler and 1 toddler and let's hope we have enough hands to carry all of it!

We leave bright and early Thursday morning and will arrive in Beijing on Friday evening.

If you'd like to pray for us while we are gone, here are some requests that we have been bringing before God:

1) For safe travels with no delays

2) That we will have no anxiety about the trip but that we will trust God with every detail of it

3) That Caroline will know who we are when we meet and that she will bond with us quickly. Also, that we will know how to comfort her in this big transition for her

4) That Caroline & Sarah Grace will become fast friends

5) That we will enjoy ourselves and create memories to treasure

Our next post should be from China!
