This is a picture of me handing out candy to the 5 year olds. They were so cute, and grateful too!
A couple of 5 year old girls discussing the treats they just received from the foreigners.... we gave them gum, candy, pencils, stickers, etc. They loved it!
Two boys discussing how much loot they got!
This is the room where the kids (not nap, sleep!). The kids sleep at the school from Monday to Friday and then go home to their parents on the weekends.
This is where the kids (boys and girls!) pee. Everybody has to squat to pee!
We have lots of pictures of the city, and the places we visited, however we will post more later. We are amazed at how much poverty is here. It really makes you appreciate the rock.
We love and miss you all, and will post more tomorrow. Just a few more sleeps until we fly to Changsha to meet Maggie!!!!

Hi Lisa,
I am so glad to hear that you and the group have made it. I can't imagine the feelings of emotion and excitment. Considering that your families are feeling somewhat the same way here. I look forward to visiting your website and following you on your journey.
Love, Kelly Rumsey (Cathy's sister)
Brent & Lisa,
I am thinking of you everyday. You haven't left my mind since I knew that you were on your way. I am wishing it was time that you were back again - and maybe you'll appreciate my beautiful face when you see it! Take care and look after yourselves. Looking forward to seeing little Maggie when you bring her home. Tell Brent not to lose too much weight while he's gone! ('cause I know he's not going to eat!)
Love,
Mom Morgan
Brent & Lisa,
I am on the phone with Mom now and she just read out her message so that I could add it to the blog. I am thinking about you all the time, wondering what you are doing each moment. Can't wait to see more photos! And in a few days those photos will include Maggie!
Love,
Stephanie
hi guys
Love the pictures of the children at school. The visit with Gracie went well. She loves the picture of the snow covered runway in St.John's. Can't wait to see a picture of Maggie. Carter is now 8 lbs, 11 OZ (big boy)
Love Wanda, Eric, and Carter
