Hong Kong then HOME .....

We have had a nice time in Hong Kong walking, shopping the street markets and of course eating!  On Friday when we left Guangzhou it was raining and when we arrived in Hong Kong it was raining even harder!  That did not make for a fun walk to dinner, but we did have a good meal at Outback.  We were so thankful that Saturday the rain had stopped even though it was pretty cloudy all day.  Today we woke to bright sunshine and blue sky, which is rare here.  It was a beautiful but pretty warm day.  Our time in Asia has come to an end...after 5 plane rides, 1 train rides, numerous subway rides, 4 hotels and approximately 15 meals at McDonalds we will be heading out early tomorrow morning and cannot wait to get home!!!!!

Thank you again for praying for us.  We have seen a MAJOR difference with Paityn just in the past week.  Last week at this time she really did not want anything to do with Matt or Madison, but now she is starting to open up and will go to them pretty much anytime.  We are so thankful that it has gotten better because the first week and a half were VERY emotionally draining. We are anxious to get home and settled into our lives as a family of four!

Will try to keep up posting once we are back home!
