It looks like you have nice weather and that the kids are having a great time! So glad that you made it safely to Taiyuan. Will you have time to look around? Hoping that James is doing a bit better and that you can all catch a bit more sleep before Juliana.
Tina...... We are ALL blessed! So proud of James and Natalie for all they do and how they handle all of the possible problems. Tessa, Ian and Juliana went to the right family!
We love you guys, have a good day and can't wait to see pictures of Juliana.
Love, Mom and Dad

Hi Natalie!! First of all I am glad you had pancakes but the real question is has Jim had a good cup of coffee yet?!?! I told him and now want to tell you that you have the most beautiful family I have ever seen and that includes you!!! You and Jim are awesome people and you both are amazing parents. I loved when you wrote on the first day that you have too many blessings to count. I don't know who is more blessed, you and Jim or Tessa, Ian and Juliana for getting the best "forever family" they could ever pray for. I hope tomorrow goes as smoothly as possible for all of you, especially Juliana. Keep posting please!!!!

So happy for your family! Such excitement all must be going through. You will be a terrific mom of 3, I am sure. Take many pictures of Juliana being loved on her very first day of her new life. This is the first time I have "met" your children and husband, through the posted pictures. Nice looking family. Safe trip back.

Thanks for the pictures.  Everyone looks like they are having a great time.  Love the  pic of Tessa and Ian in front of the Great Wall.  Little Juliana is as cute as a button, even with that hairdo!  But uh-oh, she looks ornery! 
Hugs and kisses,
Mother & Dad

So glad your there safely! Natalie you should seriously consider a writing career, you are awesome at it! I miss you all already and love reading your stories. Don't even worry for a second if you can do it, being in your family is the best thing Juliana will have happen in her lifetime. GET SOME SLEEP LOL!!!

So happy to read you got there and without any of the many potential situations we talked about.  Now for some rest and sightseeing.  It's probably good that you have to wait until Monday so Tessa and Ian can get over the jet lag and you all become a bit more acclimatized to the different time zones, cultures, food.  I will be holding you close in my thoughts.  Wish I could be a mouse in Ian's pocket so I could see you and James face when Juliana is introduced to her forever family.
Love you guys, 
Kate

Dear James Natalie, Tessa and Ian,
We miss you all so much and are glad that at least the first part of the trip is done!!! Your fur babies are fine and being good! We are so excited to see pictures of our new granddaughter and are so proud of all that you are doing. God has blessed not only you and the children with such a loving and forever family but also all of us with so much joy to see such love! Get some rest today and enjoy The Wall tomorrow. We are looking forward to following your trip and can't wait to see you all come down the escalator at the airport!!!
We Love You, be safe.
Miss you Tessa and Ian
Love Mom & Dad.

Hi there, thank you so much for the website where we can follow your steps.  Ron and I just want to say that you two have been such a special blessing to these 3 little ones.  Don't know what they would have done without you, but are so thankful that they know a gracious home, such wonderful love and care, and hearts that are so full of giving that it just keeps on keeping on.  We so love and respect you for that and consider you "awesome" for finding it in your hearts to be parents to these precious, adorable children.  You are giving so much love, time, and attention now, but the real rewards will come when they are grown and continue to give and love the way they have been taught.  Thinking of you and praying all goes safely with your travels, your health and all that is necessary to complete the adoption  and then that God will lead you safely home to start a new life of five.  Take care and know that we care.  Always with love and hugs, Linda and Ron
