Great to see you all are smiling - life is good. Jackson seemed to be a little slippery in the picture of you and him. Maybe he was born in the year of the greased pig! Love to see the spunk in him. He will be a mighty man of God when he grows up. Right now he is a mighty wiggly warrior! Keep the prayer walking up for his family and his country. Love you, Mom and Dad
Praise God the TB test came back fine!!! I kept little Jackson in my prayers over the weekend that the test would come back fine. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us. I love it!

So glad that Jackson's TB test results were good!
Jadon stopped me at lunch today to tell me that Jackson spit his milk on the florr. I'm sure there's more to that story, but Jadon enjoyed telling me the most important part!
Enjoy the rest of your time in China. Can't wait to see all 5 of you together.
