Great days with my boys...

What a privilege it has been to have been able to spend the last few days with two of the sweetest young men I know.  If you know DonLi, then you know just hangin' out with him makes you a better person.  He has the most optimistic outlook on life you have ever seen and he sees the best in things and people.  Helpful, kind, courteous, thoughtful all with a servant's heart are just a few words that come to mind when I think of him.   And, it looks like Levi is going to be a lot like him.  They laugh together watching movies, wrestle around the bed having pillow fights and play games together.  They are quickly becoming best friends.  We also discovered a McDonald's within a few steps of us and on the ground floor they have a special window just for ice cream treats....we've treated ourselves to a sundae or ice cream float each afternoon.
Today we went to the park and drove the motor boat again and this evening our entire adoption group (about 8 other families) went on the Pearl River boat cruise.  The Pearl River is the 3rd largest river in China and it goes to the sea, so it is very important for commerce in the city of Guangzhou.  We floated right by the 3rd tallest structure in the world.  It has multicolored LED lights that change in neat patterns.  It was a wonderful cruise and the boys had a great time (and their dad did too!)  We apply for our Visa tomorrow, then 2 more days until we start our travel home!
Thank you everyone for your prayers.
