...a longing fulfilled....: Travel Dates!!

There is a little girl trembling

on a cold December morn

Cryin’ for Momma’s arms

At an orphanage just outside

a little China town

Where the forgotten are

But half a world away I hang

The stockings by the fire

And dream about the day

When I can finally call you mine

It’s Christmas time again

but you’re not home

Your family is here and yet

you’re somewhere else alone

So tonight I pray that God will

come and hold you in His arms

And tell you from my heart,

I wish you a Merry Christmas

As I hang the tinsel on the tree

and watch the twinkling lights

I’m warmed by the fire’s glow

Outside the children tumble

in a wonderland of white

And make angels in the snow

And half a world away you try

Your best to fight the tears

And hope that heaven’s angels

Come to carry you here

It’s Christmas time again

but you’re not home

Your family is here and yet

you’re somewhere else alone

So tonight I pray that God will

come and hold you in His arms

And tell you from my heart,

I wish you a Merry Christmas

And Christmas is a time

to celebrate the Holy Child

And we celebrate

His perfect gift of love

He came to us to give His life

and prepare a place for us

So we could have a

home with Him above

It's Christmas time again

and now you're home.

Your family is here so you

will never be alone

so tonight before you go to sleep,

I'll hold you in my arms

and tell you from my heart,

I wish you a Merry Christmas.

Third Day - Merry Christmas

Travel Dates!!

We are delighted to announce that we have travel dates. We will leave home on United at 6am Friday December 4th. In God's sovereign timing He has orchestrated that we meet Emeline on her 2nd Birthday December 7th. We plan to return via United from Hong Kong to Chicago to home on December 19th at 3pm. From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets ( we will travel this in one day :0) ). The Name of the Lord is to be praised. Praise the Lord!! (Psalm 113)
