Some Special News!
I got word today from an adoptive mom that recently visited Maonan SWI, that she saw MaryAlice and said she is adorable, has beautiful eyes and chubby cheeks!! She wasn't allowed to take photos, but saw her in the playroom and recognized her from our previous correspondence. I was so excited to hear this news!!
On the other side of the world...I pack, and repack and then try it one more time to get my luggage weight under the limit. I have a mini-pharmacy that I refuse to compromise on. And just how many Cheerios should I bring? People laugh about that one, but from what we're told, Cheerios are difficult to find in China, so if I guess wrong, we may be bargaining with other families. It could be a long flight back if we have to ration the Cheerios!
We arrive in Beijing the night of the 28th and have two full days of touring, Friday and Saturday. Sunday we fly to Guangzhou, which will allow me a chance to get things organized in the hotel room. Monday afternoon, I meet MaryAlice! I'll try to post photos as soon as I can, so that hopefully Monday morning 9/1/08, folks back home can see.
That's it for now...must get back to packing, laundry, cleaning, etc.

Have a safe and wonderful trip!! I cant wait to see pictures of MaryAlice in your arms, it will be an amazing moment! It brings me too tears to think we were in that moment 3 1/2 weeks ago and now we are back home and trying to figure out the crazy routine. Enjoy these quiet together moments over the next few days and soak in the sights before the whirlwind hits Monday. :-) Blessings.
