Final post from China...



We're sad to announce that this will be our final post from China!
We're excited though, because that means we're almost home and we'll finally get the chance to introduce you all to Mia Sara Jia Lovell...
We depart in the morning and won't arrive back in Phoenix until almost midnight on Friday night. We're hoping that Mia continues her peaceful ways and that our flights are enjoyable. We can't thank you all enough for your love and support over the past few weeks. It has meant so much to us to run to our email each morning and check out all the supportive comments left on Mia's blog. We'll continue to provide periodic updates for anyone who is interestd in learning of Mia's progress and continued growth. We'll certainly provide an update this weekend as we're getting settled in, to let you all know how the trip home and first night in Mia's new palace of a room goes! Plus it should be interesting to see how our cat Sofia accepts Mia into her domain... Who knows, this is pretty addictive sharing Mia's life with you all, maybe we'll find we can't stop... Thank you & see you soon!
Love,
Mike, Stacy & Mia!

What an amazing journey. She is so beautiful, I can't wait to meet her. I was sharing your story with friends last night and when I told them about Mike's posting when you finally held Mia there wasn't a dry eye in the room. The blog has been a fantastic way for all of us to feel a part of your trip. Love you! Sandy and Dave

GodSpeed... have a safe flight you guys. Can't wait to see you both (or all three!) tonight!
Thanks for your faithful updates. Jenny and I have read them all in anxious anticipation. We are so happy for you both and glad to see you have been so blessed with little Mia. Wish we could be here for #2...
See ya tonight,
Skip/Jenny Richards

Oh, and Jenny hates it when I say this... but, Benadryl works wonders on kids while flying!!! :-)
(puts them to sleep for hours, and clears out the sinuses so decompression earaches on descent lessens)
I'd never admit to it in a court of law, but my kids are products of Benadryl traveling (hmmmm... maybe THAT's the reason!!)
