Today we went to the US consulate and completed the final paper work and applied for a US visa for mui-mui. Now all we have to do is wait until they issue the visa and the necessary documents for entry. So three more days until we come home. All the kids are doing well. The boys are having a good time with children from other families. Karissa have completely warmed up to Hebron and will prefer him over other strangers. Please pray for me (Kitty), I have developed rashes on my hands and feet that itches. I am not sure if it is an allergic reaction to something or a contagious condition. Please pray that the boys and mui-mui don't get it. I see a small rash developing at the corner of mui-mui's mouth, I hope it's nothing serious and won't effect her appetite.
While we are waiting for our visa, our agency have arranged many activities for us. We went to the zoo and on a safari ride. They have many animals that we don't have at the Oakland zoo, like white tigers, koalas, and pandas. Tomorrow we will go on a ferry ride and eat Papa John's pizza. We all miss home.

Kitty and Hebron,
Glad to see you guys doing well. California has been pounded with lots of rain for the past 5 days. It will probably be cleared and you will be welcome home with some sunshine. Have a very blessed Christmas with Mui2 home.
I got a mystery rash when I was in China too. The Chinese dermatologist gave me some packages of powdered herbal medicine to swallow with water and some topical menthol alcohol to apply on the arm. It cleared up in about two weeks. Look for some menthol-based stuff to help with the itch, like metholatum (dup bo go). I doubt it's contagious; just allergic reaction.
Praise God that Karissa has warmed up to Hebron!! Our family has been praying!! The Gin kids said, "Awwww....poor Hebron." And Kandice said, "Hebron is so nice. I know it's a matter of time for Karissa to get used to him." Karissa is so blessed to have you & Hebron as her parents and Josh and Caleb as her brothers. We love you all and look forward to your safe return!!
