We had another good night with Betsy. She sleeps so soundly...for that I am very thankful! She is taking naps too:) She is an absolute treasure. It is hard to believe we have only really known her since Monday. She loves playing with Sam and Ellie! She has all of us wrapped around her little finger;) Sometimes we just sit and watch her...she is busy busy. Maybe that's why she sleeps so well! I think I said before that she likes to color. She will sit and not make a sound for several minutes. She is very focused. You saw pictures of her with makeup. She loves to dig around in my makeup bag! The girl is a hoot...a doll:) She loves it when Todd tickles her. She will laugh so hard I think she might stop breathing!! We are having a great time getting to know her. Today we went to Saint Sophia's Church. It was built in 19th century by the Russians. There is a very heavy Russian influence here as Harbin is very close to Russia. Sam and Ellie fed the birds outside the church. There was a lady selling bird food. Betsy watched them, but wouldn't try it. The church was beautiful! We are leaving for Guangzhou tomorrow afternoon. I may not get a chance to post again.Please pray for a safe flight to Guangzhou and that Betsy does well as we travel. Thanks again for your prayers and comments... we appreciate it more than you know!
Daddy's are definitely good at tickling! That is a great bonding thing..Matthew takes advantage of it, too. The question the nana asked Betsy would have upset me, too, no question...but how awesome it was for her to ask for you! God is amazing and He does incredible things...things we could never even conceive ourselves. Praying your flight to Guangzhou goes well...hugs!
