It is a tradition for all adoptive families to have the babies' pictures made on the red couch in the White Swan hotel. Ok, imagine 8 squirmy babies all dress in traditional Chinese silk dresses and moms and dads trying to put them down at one time and get a "good" picture. You've got the idea! It was crazy. Nila called it. She said there's always one crying baby and she bet that CJ would be the one to cry. She was right. Miss CJ was not a happy girl. Guess which one she is! We leave Guangzhou tomorrow and travel 2 hrs. by train to Hong Kong. We'll stay there overnight and fly out of HK Friday morning. I pray that Karsynn and CJ both do well on the long flight. They did great on their first short trip, but 14 hrs. is a LONGGGGGG time to fly. We love and miss you all and can't wait to introduce Ms. Karsynn to her new family and friends. You're just going to "eat her up!" She's a special girl and we are truly blessed, although she did bite her mommy today on the shoulder. We may not post again in China, so if not, until next time... We're coming home!!!!!!!!! We were even presented with out Going Home Barbie today at the White Swan. This is a special gift given to all families by Mattel, who stay at the White Swan. It is a Barbie carrying a Chinese daughter. Very nice!!!!

What great photos!! It's obvious to see that you have made lifetime friends with CJ's family. I'm sure you share an amazing bond with them by now. It's quite a journey to go through together!

She is beautiful! Hope all is well. I've enjoyed following your journey. We are with the same agency and have a very long wait. Congratulations!
