Neat Story to Share

I have been wanting to share this so neat story. When in Beijing on Monday - one of the couples got away from us at the Forbidden City which was unusually crowded. Our entire group was stopped for about an hour as the guide and one other person in our group looked for them. We were all afraid for them - in a city where they do not know the language and also a location where the unofficial street vendors are very agressive and very dishonest. Our guide and the woman from our group stopped to pray for the couple - who had been apart from us for over two hours. Five minutes after they prayed our guides phone rang. It was our friends - who had found someone walking by them with a cell phone. They asked the person if he spoke english and when he did they explained their situation and they we able to call our guides phone. It was amazing - and we were all thankful when they showed up - no longer lost.

Here are a few more pics of Lacie. I know that is really what everyone would rather see. She gets a kick out of John's raspberrys.

Vonda, John & Lacie,
your uncle Kent took a laptop and your pictures to your grandmother Richardson's home in Etown, and she thinks Lacie is beautiful. Don and I are loving this. Of course I wouldn't be doing this without him. Love, Mom and Don
