They Made it Safely to Hubei!!!

***UPDATE***
I just talked to my parents...and they were just heading out of their hotel. They will drive 1 hour to where Karleigh Mei will be waiting for them and will pick up our precious girl! :) Only about an hour more and she will be IN THEIR ARMS!!!!!!!

Hello All! This is Lexie again...

We just talked to our parents...they made it to Hubei and will be getting Karleigh Mei at 10 a.m. tomorrow their time! Wow!!!!!!! Karleigh Mei has already made her long trek to where my parents are and is hopefully sleeping well. Its crazy because she is not sleeping far from my parents tonight! It's only a few more hours (11 to be exact) till they will be meeting her! The countdown begins!!!!!

They will be getting her at 8 p.m. our time. So all of you prayer warriors out there...please be praying for Karleigh Mei to know and see the love of my parents tomorrow morning!!!

I will have picture to share with y'all later this evening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are praying! Thanks so much for the updates Jenn and Lexie! We love you guys dearly and have cried reading them. We are SOOO excited for you and for Karleigh Mei. We will be praying at 8:00 pm tonight. I know Karleigh will see Jesus in you and feel the love from your hearts. Great pictures of you guys at the Great wall and smart call, Jenn, on no Starbucks.

OK, I am SO EXCITED! I can't believe it! I mean I can, but it seems like now that the time has flown since you emailed me your NEWS!!! Can you believe it???

AAAAHHHHH … I can't wait and I am working on a project late into the night tonight so I'll be lurking just in case you can give us a pic or two!

Jenn, I feel like my journey is truly coming full circle now that you are there too! Sounds crazy but you have always been there since we "met" last December and I wanted us to go together so badly. That was not God's plan but now it is all coming together for you too my friend! TOGETHER WITH KARLEIGH MEI IN LESS THAN 12 HOURS!!!

All good and perfect gifts are from above!

Karl and Jenn~

Well, you know I'm just a bit excited here. I hope amidst all this flurry of excitement that you are feeling a peaceful, easy feeling that only God can provide.

Right now I hope you are sleeping. (I think I finally got the math straight.)

Hip, hip, Hubei it is Karleigh Mei day!!!

And Lexie, you're doing great. I hope you, Katie, Gannon, and Garrison (and the rest of your family) have that peace that I pray for your mom and dad.

xoxo,
Lisa

Have been praying for all of you . . . hoping that by now Karleigh Mei is right where she belongs, in her mama's (and baba's) arms! Praying for the Lord to give peace to her little heart.

Blessings~
