Jenna, Parker, and I have been up since 2am; we're not completely acclimated to the time difference. Jeff slept from about 3pm yesterday, woke up for an hour around 8pm and is still asleep Andrew is asleep with Daddy in the other room. The girls and I are going to be some kind of sleepy this afternoon. We're planning on a nap and then trying to get back on a good China schedule with bedtime around 8-9pm.
The plans for the day are to meet David in the lobby at 10:30am and we are going to a park here in Nanning. We are following his lead on everything. He says this will be a fun place for the kids to get "some fresh air". We haven't seen the sun yet and are wondering if it's pollutants or pollutants plus clouds. It's hard to tell.
David has already warned us that Americans keep their rooms too cool so to make sure to dress Jake warm. He says long sleeved pajamas, but I had heard this ahead of time. But it is so hot and muggy that I can't imagine putting him in long sleeves during the day.
It's been good to be here to get settled before Jake comes (and two rooms was a must for space reasons) especially with the children and food issues, but it has also been hard waiting. The anticipation is building. There are so many things to think / worry about with how all this will go, but I know intellectually that worry is sin. Please pray that I will be flooded with confidence in the Lord and that great peace will overcome me. Pray that He will help me to trust in Him with all my heart and acknowledge Him in all my ways.
