Learning to Upload a Video



I think I've got it figured out, but man it takes it a while to download. Hopefully in the future, I'll have more interesting videos! There's not much drama in this one...all business during the delivery. I'd probably be the same way if I was in the hospital delivering a baby. The lesson here is that I've learned I'm not a "happy" crier. I cry when I'm sad or mad, but not when I'm happy, so the best chance you have to see me cry is if Northwest loses my luggage!

That's all for now...must get to work!!

Our daughter came home from Maonan in 2005. I hope you don't mind if we follow along with your trip. I was the same way when I got our call. My husband was in another country, my best friend had just flown back to the states and I was sitting by myself in a concrete house in Spain just taking it all in. I didn't even cry last week when we accepted the referral of our second daughter! I just used too many exclamation marks in my emails to family. ;-) MaryAlice is a very cute baby. Can't wait to see her in your arms where she belongs. God Bless, Andrea

Hi Sharon,
Millie in Miami gave me your blog address, I believe she knows you or someone in your family?

Congratulations on the referral of Mary Alice. Your daughter is absolutely adorable.

I did not cry on referral day nor gotcha day for both my daughters (I guess the adrenaline was so high, there was no time for tears) But when I look back on the photos and videos, that's when it all comes out.

Have a safe trip! I'm sure you are ready to get on that plane!

Best wishes,
Ada
