This is Lexie, Jenn's daughter, taking over for my mom with the posting. The internet is not too strong over their so they will be sending us emails with pictures~that I will then post here!! 
Here is what they have to say:
It’s early in the morning on Sunday the 7th. A year ago today our dossier was sent to China! Today we are being “sent” to our darling girl’s province so that we can receive her TOMORROW! We still cannot believe we are here! We are in Beijing still and have another busy day ahead of us. I’m looking forward to our church service we are going to later this morning. We are also going to the Forbidden City. Yesterday we went to the Summer Palace and the Great Wall. I’m having Lexie post for me my pictures. Thank you Lexie!! Thank you again for all of your prayers for us and Karleigh Mei!! They mean so very much to us!! We will try to post pictures of us with our girl as soon as we can!

So good to actually see you over there and taking in the sights. Can't believe you turned down Starbucks but completely understand. :-)
Hope you're doing well. Have been thinking and praying and thinking and praying.
So excited that tomorrow is Karleigh Mei day.

YOU ARE THERE!!!!! WooHoo!
We're all back here watching and waiting to see that sweet girl with her parents! Praying and hugging you all the way to China!
Love~
Kam and family
Oh my gosh! I am so excited for you all! What a blessing! I will be praying God will prepare her little heart and she will immediately feel loved, safe, and at home in your arms!
ya'll are soooo cute!!! (and look VERY COLD!!!))
Can't wait till tomorrow!!!!!! I may not sleep tonight either!!!!!
Just checking in before church to see if there is an update. Will be visiting lots today.
By my calculations, it should be anytime now. I pray things go smoothly as you meet Karleigh Mei for the first time. I know you've prepared yourself for a zillion scenarios and trust me when I say that even if it isn't as idyllic as you want it to be, it'll get better with time.
Sending you our love~
Don, Lisa, and Lindy
As I type you are in Karleigh's province!!! I know how overwhelming the emotions are!!! I pray you feel the peace that Jeff and I did as we walked out of our hotel room to go and meet Her Rubiness. It was truly the most amazing thing I have ever done! Your hearts will be changed forever!
I pray that sweet Karleigh Mei is healthy and amazingly content. That you can just sense that she knows you. And, that she will feel safe and loved!
Blessings on this very very special time! I look forward to seeing a precious little girl in a Hello Kitty Coat with her Mommy & Daddy soon!

Okay, clearly, I was not stellar in math...I just realized (with some guidance from Lexie) that I was way off with the time thing. I was thinking it was morning there. Duh...try night and a 14 hour difference not 24... Maybe I'll be able to do my higher mathematics after some caffeine.
Nonetheless, I'm thinking of you.

Checking in on the Gager clan! The church service there was so emotional for me. As I sat there, I became overwhelmed that I was worshipping my Lord ... in a country that forbid that to it's own people ... and in only hours I would meet my baby girl and bring her home where she too would have the opportunity to know and worship the name of Jesus. It's an opportunity she may have never known had it not been for the Grace and Mercy of the Lord and his divine plan of bringing her into our lives. Karleigh Mei is so blessed to have the most amazing family to love and care for her. And no doubt, Karleigh Mei will bring your family so much joy and happiness in return - truly, his orchestration of our quiver's is divine! We are praying for you guys and that moment that you kneel down and look into her beautiful almond eyes and tell her that you are Mama and Karl is her Baba!
On our own way to church this morning and will be spending much time bringing you guys to the foot of the cross and praying for Karleigh Mei and that the Lord is preparing her heart for your arms!!
Wow Tomorrow! Yeah!!! Hopefully it will be much warmer.
So excited!!! AHHH!!! The countdown begins!!
