The Church In China

While we were in Wuhan we went to church. It was a school with a court yard. It was unique in the fact that there was not a pastor at this church but it was a feed from a near by church. Every room in the school was full with a tv for the congregation to watch. We arrived a little late and all the rooms were full but the court yard. The people there were soooooo friendly. They brought us out hymnals ( in Chinese) and Bibles ( also in Chinese). We just pretended to follow along,lol! I had no idea where they were in the Bible or the hymnal. All of the chairs were full so we sat on a little bench. Several of the older women in the congregation did not like the fact that A. we were sitting on the benches with the babies, and B. we were in the sun with the babies. We spent the next hour being moved from spot to spot in chairs so we would not be in the sun! It was very sweet and very funny! Kai was sleeping in her carrier when we first arrived and one of the older women leaned in to get a peek, she kissed her on the cheek and then whacked her on the cheek! This is a very normal thing for the Chinese! They are always whacking the babies on the cheeks.Its a way of showing affection. We really had a wonderful time and it was so moving to see the Chinese worship.

Lost Pics of China

We had several pics that did not get transferred from the laptop we took to China and our home computer. We just realised they were missing a week or so ago. So here are a few extra random pics from our trip!The first is Kai setting in the window of our hotel in Wuhan. The second is one of my favorites,and the third is of the three of us after dinner in Wuhan.

Cowgirl Kai

Kai has some new pink cowgirl boots! She LOVES em! She is a bit of a shoe hound. She will bring me a pair of shoes and say shhhhhhh shhhhhh, that means " I really think these shoes are cute, please put them on my Yedi like feet so I may admire them!"
