Hadn't posted pictures for a few days so thought I'd put a few extras in from Sunday's tour of Beijing. 1-bird's nest, the olympic stadium; 2-the aquatics center at olympic village. We still workers at both places getting it ready for this summer.  There were people up on top of the bird's nest. 3-What a load to have pedal around. This load was small compared to some we have seen. I should've taken pictures of the traffic. No one complain about traffic at home. It's much, much worse here! Pedestrians do not have the right away here. You really have to pay attention to what's going on.

Better day!

Praise the Lord for His mighty works for He is worthy of all glory, honor, and praise! We lift His name on high! As I sit here typing with one hand, I'm trying to keep my inquisitive son away from the keyboard!  As you can tell he is beginning to feel a little better. The highest his fever has been today is 101.  At least it is more of a low grade temp now. We just may be turning a  corner. Yeah! He scarfed up a big bowl of maple brown sugar oatmeal this morning and finally drank some milk again. Still using a dropper to get it in. He's still taking long naps which has allowed us to rest some in between.
Andrew ate his first piece of chocolate and loved it. He really is part of the family! We packed our suitcases this afternoon. Still have a few things to throw it but they should be ready to go downstairs at 9:30 tonight. We're going stir crazy.  I got my shower and went down to breakfast with the group while Kevin stayed with Andrew. Then he went to lunch and I stayed in the room. Kevin also went and had a foot massage this afternoon. He really loved that.
Thanks everyone for your prayers and comments. We talk to you next in Guangzhou. Will be a early morning. Have to be in lobby ready to go at 5:30 in the morning. We have a long day tomorrow. We think we have our Chinese medical visit for Andrew tomorrow and the paperwork party for our the consulate and Andrew's visa. Said could take a few hours.
Talk at ya tomorrow. Love to all!
