I'm up to my knees in corn!!! Nate
Nate loves to play with little boy things like tractors, balls, Leggo's and animals. But he also loves to play with baby dolls with NO hair. He hates dolls with hair ...they scare him. He is very gentle and loving with the dolls. He kisses them on top of the head as he walks around. We found out last week that Nate had two other children living with him in foster care. Two foster sisters. They told us that Nate use to help feed his little foster sister ... she has CP and is unable to feed herself.

Boo boo's happen in China too!!!
Not as bad as it looks!!!
Nate likes to write just as much as his sisters.
See I'm OK!!!
Well Nate got his first boo boo with us today. He fell at breakfast (around 9am) and hit his head and had to have 5 stitches put in. We went to the emergency room and got the stitches in and we were on our way back to the hotel by 10:15am. Robert McLean (he is an ENT in CO.) went with Nate and I to the ER. I'm so glad he went with us because I wanted someone who knew something about stitches to watch the ER doctor and make sure they were doing it right and to make sure they gave Nate something for pain. Robert said the ER doctor done a good job sewing it up. Many thanks to Robert for his assistance and to our group for lifting us up. I was amazed at how fast the ER doctor saw us. We walked in and they took us right on back. The hotel was very accommodating also. Two hotel employees went with us also. As soon as we were back at the hotel Nate was up and going and at 10:30 pm still going. Nate is a real trooper. Oh yeah the cost of the ER was 160RMB which is $23.70 in US currency.

Nate's first day at church!!! :-)
We went to church today! We were brought to tears just listening to the people sing worship songs in Chinese to HIM. The church was packed with mostly Chinese families. PTL I was so thankful to HIM for the families there worshipping our SAVIOR. I hope more people will hear the Good News!!!
HE has HIS hand on us!!!
Less than 24 hours after we left Kunming, there was an earthquake. Our friends in Kunming said that they felt the quake about 4:30 pm on Sat. Also Zhaotong where Nate is from had a lot of damage. HE has something special for Nate to do. Nate has survived his special need ... where here in China most boys do not live. And now leaving Zhaotong just in time to miss the earthquake. Please lift up Nate's foster parents and all the other orphans in Zhaotong city in Yunnan.
