Lifelong friends

We were sad to say goodbye to our friends, Carolyn, Marvin and Jaida this morning but happy for all the new memories we created on this trip. We're also excited for the next phase of their journey: reuniting with Kennedy and introducing their girls to each other. We look forward to hearing all about it!

Their beautiful Jaida is three today. Happy Birthday, Jaida! May you enjoy every minute of your super-long birthday! (Because of the time change, they'll experience Jaida's birthday for nearly 40 hours.)

We subjected the kids to one last photo shoot:

And then the moms got in the picture. This one is especially for Beth, Kathleen, Shea and Raelene!

YAY! I was just saying to Girard that we haven't seen many pix of Claire, Ren and Jaida together and no mom and kiddie pix! Thanks for making my day!

What an incredible trip for all of you. To be able to share the experience of Forever Family Day and China twice with the same family is an amazing blessing.

The three amigos look great together! How great that you were able to share this experience again.

As always, I wish we all lived close together so that we could see more of each other. It would be so cool if the kids could grow up together.
