My Isabel is turning 8 years old today. Enjoy your day Isa and mom and Lily will soon be home. Have a great time trick and treating tonight everyone. Sam and Isa, save me a bit of chocolat from your bag!!! Isabel, the picture of Lily with the balloon is her wishing you a happy birthday. We had a busy day in China. We left this morning for a tour of Hunan University. The buildings were beautiful. It really felt like China. The picture of Lily and I in front of the chinese writting is special. Parents have their picture taken here with their kids because the symbols means respect and love for parents. Lily slept the whole morning on my belly in her carrier. She is such a trooper!! The boys also had fun with Paula's yellow rain poncho. They kept calling Big Bird!! We have our last supper in Changsha tonight. We leave for Beijing tomorrow morning at 7:00am. One step closer to home. Yah!!! Lily is napping so I will try to pack before supper. Have a great Halloween!!!

Hello,
Happy Birthday to Isabel. Hannah and Maddie called her at 7:10 am to wish her happy day. They were excited to talk to her. Sounds like her day started off on a good note.
Sounds like you are having incredible adventures in China. I love the picture with the rain coat. The buildings look very detailed and amazing.
Have a safe trip to Beijing. I am glad you had the chance to have the photo in the special spot for parents. A blessing.
Love,
Ea and family xoxoxo
We join Lily in wishing Isabel a special birthday day! Eat lots of candy and share with your Dad! Special days and such memories! Francine you're one step closer to home with the return to Beijing. Our arms are already open waiting to give out lots of hugs ( and of course a pocket full of kleenex!) You're all looking fantastic and glowing....
Love Mariette
