Getting Ready

We are in major preparation, planning, and packing mode right now. Only 17 days until we leave, and so much to do! The suitcases are out and already filled. I've got lists in every room of the house to help me remember things I need to finish or things I need to make sure I pack. The girls are getting really excited now. Katelyn has started the countdown of days of school left before we go (she's in single digits now). I'm not quite sure Lianna gets what is happening but she is happy to put things into the suitcases, and then take them out again.
Our friends in China have been working on our plans for when we arrive in Guangxi. Luckily, the area has not been affected by the earthquake in Sichuan, but everyone is devastated by the tremendous loss and suffering. I wish that we would have time to go help with the relief effort there, but it seems that our time in China is packed with work already.
