Oh how very exciting! I'm praising God along with you! And I didn't realize that Karleigh Mei was from Hubei Province. Caleb was too and we thoroughly enjoyed our week in Wuhan. I can give you some restaurunt recommendations if you'd like. And man I hope you end up with the same guide we had there ~ you'll love Zoey if you get to meet her. I can't wait to follow your journey!
