Hi everyone!

We're in China right now and we received Hannah on Monday which was Easter Sunday in the states. I'm writing to ask for prayers as we discovered a ping-pong size knot on the crown of her head and don't know what it is. She was supposedly born with it. We can't wait to get home and have it checked out. If you haven't looked please check out our blog http://www.journeytome.com/ click on adoption journals. The username/password is RachelR She is such a sweet, cuddly baby. Behind developmentaly definitely but just so precious.

Also, please pray for Hannah. She seems to be coming down with an ear infection. We've started antibiotics and tylenol/motrin and I'm sure she'll be fine but is kind of miserable right now. She has handled the travel like a trooper and loves her little sister. A bit jealous at times but we expected that.

We can't wait to get home! 6 more days! Our boys are with my sister in NOVA and we miss them like mad.

Thanks!

Congratulations! Rachel is beautiful, Hannah must be thrilled to have a little sister! Praying for a smooth transition when you get home and for Rachel's future surgery and that the lump is nothing serious.
