We made our group pictures yesterday as well as went to the Guangzhou Zoo after our Consulate Appointment. It was a lot of fun. Naomi wasn't sure about the animals at first, but she warmed up after a while.
There were only four total families in our group & I was so very thankful for each one of them. Praise the Lord we did not have to do any of this alone..... He is Good :)
The four sweet ones.... Their ages range from 2-4 years old. Again, Naomi is a "little mommie"... getting ready to stroll her friend in her stroller... :)
And, a Starbucks afterward :)
Of course, the boys drew attention again (they're ganna miss this when we get home...lol)
Naomi wrapped a diaper around her baby before we left the hotel! So cute!
She is quite the princess!!
She is waving at the animals from a distance... she did NOT want to be up close & personal... :)
Kangaroos!! So cute!
Our little mommie :))
It has taken her a while to like cold stuff..... She likes popsicles now! And it's a good thing... she better get ready for that Mississippi heat!
Praying for safe travels and continued strength for all of you. Can't wait to finally meet her in person. I am sure she will fit right in with all the little mommies in Mission Friends on Wednesday night! :) Much love, Amanda

Praying you home! Now the real fun begins. Once your body adjusts back to American time, you will love seeing the world through Naomi's eyes. Everything {and I mean EVERYthing} will be new and exciting to her. I am so very thankful that she is with her forever family. Such an amazing picture of God's beautiful grace and work that united your daughter to you.
