Jan 2007

Still no news from China. Our documents have been over there since March 2006 and we don't even know if we've been reviewed yet. The last we heard, they had finished the review of the families who were logged in during December of 2005 and were working on the January 2006 families. We hope to hear something any day now!

However, we are not bored right now. Why, you ask? Because there has been an outbreak of Chickenpox at the boys school. Most of the children who are getting them were immunized for this as a baby, but apparently the immunization does NOT last forever. So, one after another the kids are breaking out with the Pox! Jacob is actually quite proud of his pox. So, we took some pictures to show them off. For those of you who look at these pictures and start to wonder if we are feeding Jacob, I assure we are. The boy has a bionic metabolism (he gets that from me...ha ha).

Ashley came and hung out with me one day during her isolation period with her pox. We decided to give ourselves facials! What can I say?! A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do when she can't go to school!!
