Tuesday 7/29, Guangzhou - We had our swearing in at the US Consulate today and received back her Chinese passport with her new US Immigration Visa in it along with all her paperwork for Immigration. With this she will become a US Citizen once she clears the US Border in Seattle! Pretty amazing adventure! We have seen & experienced a little of everything on this trip from incredible joy to sorrow & loss for some. But the experience of getting our Joy has been beyond anything we could have imagined. Now the real fun of life together begins!
We are now all packed and as I write this everyone is asleep and will soon wake up for a 5:45 AM departure from the hotel to head back home. Joy picked up a cold, which is not unusual in this process, and it has turned in to bronchitis. We saw a Doctor today and she is on some medicines that should help alot. Please pray for her and the journey home for us if you will! Your prayers have been with us all the way on this journey and we thank you for them all and your support! God is very good to us! See you all soon!
Jim & Meg and the family (Mac, Jake, Melissa, & Joy)
(P.S. We have some more great picks of Joy on a dinner cruise Monday but getting them downloaded was a battle. We will try to update them soon.)
