We Made it


 Hello All,
We are in Lanzhou, Claire's city, and we are beyond exhausted!  We traveled for around 28 hours straight through.  So, we will update more tomorrow, but the internet connection is terrible!  It's 10:45 on Friday night here, and we get Claire on Sunday at 2:30 in the afternoon our time.  We are ready!!
Thanks for all the prayers, please keep praying and for our internet connection, too!
Love to all,
Chris and Leslie

Sophie's Song

Our friend Thad Fiscella wrote a song for our little Sophie. How cool is that! He has offered to share the profits from the sale of this song to help us bring Sophie home. If you would like to hear a sample of the song or purchase a copy for your self, please visit: http://thadfiscella.bandcamp.com

Please help us get our precious Sophia home by making a donation!

CONNIE HILL OF BLUE SPRINGS, MO!!!!!
Congratulations Connie!!!

We want to send a HUGE thank you for all the hard work and time invested to sell tickets to Julie Dotson, Lisa McCarthy, Haley Haworth, Janet Wickenhouser, and Carol Lombard. Each of these friends sold tickets in their home state and mailed the proceeds and tickets to us to be entered into the drawing. You guys were truly the hands and feet of Jesus! Thank you!!

We want to thank EVERYONE that bought raffle tickets to help us get sweet Sophie home. Because of all of the generosity and kindness shown to us we are getting closer and closer to finally being in the air to go get our girl!
Have a great evening and God bless all of you!
In Him,
Chris and Leslie
