RPTE China: going home

Follow me on Twitter / Be my friend on Facebook

We are headed home! Man, I absolutely love Beijing — and I hate saying goodbye to China everytime that we have to — but we can’t wait to see our dogs tomorrow :)

RPTE China: Day 7

Follow me on Twitter / Be my friend on Facebook

I’m extremely fortunate to have been able to see this orphanage over the course of ten years now. It hit both Lindsay and myself on this trip that it really has been ten years since we first went to the orphanage here in Beijing. I can wholeheartedly say that it has changed my life.

I was so pleased that they allow not only allow myself to visit whenever we come back to Beijing, but they allow me to bring visitors. My hope was to show the RPTE attendants how innocent these children are, how beautiful adoption is, how incredible people can be when they choose to help others, and, most importantly, that getting dealt a bad hand does not mean that you should sulk through life. These kids were handed a very interesting set of problems yet they still find ways to smile and have fun with the best of them. It’s truly inspiring.

We were able to bring fun things like toys and ice cream — and then necessities like shampoo, milk, and money. The fun these kids had just with the bubbles we brought alone was worth the trip :)

Life can so easily be full of complaints — yet it rarely seems to be by those who have the most right to complain ;)

Michelle Arms - Awww, what an absolute treasure of a post. Gorgeous, gorgeous children.May 4, 2010 - 4:35 am

Caroline Ghetes - Okay, so I have been wanting to adopt ever since I was about 7 or 8 years old, and that first boy has such a beautiful smile! And I agree. Many of us here in America could use a humbling experience like visiting an orphanage to make us realize that some of our problems are nothing in comparison to what children in orphanages have dealt with.May 4, 2010 - 5:55 am

RPTE China: day 6

Today was all about staple Beijing sites. We went to Jinghshan park and then headed over to the Forbidden City. We then wandered through Tiananmen Square and ended up on a boat through the Hou Hai lakes. Freaking awesome day.
