Trip to China
All Days  |  Previous Day 

Friday, March 9, 2007

Today was a very good day for Mei and me. We started off taking group photos on the famous "red couch" with our travel mates.

Mei smiled the entire time. She is very social and loves looking at other little ones.

After lunch we went to the US Embassy to receive Mei's passport and visa and then we had our swearing in ceremony....

Well, I raised my right hand with my left arm around Mei and got two words in and my words turned to sighs and my sighs turned to cries. I did not expect the waterfall of emotion that rushed over me but this was the end of our journey. No more wait, no more wondering, no more paperwork.

I don't think I could put into words how much this little wonder has changed my life. I am so excited to have Bill and Gus and Cate welcome home their daughter and baby sister tomorrow night!!!

I've been singing Mei this cheesy 70's song I can't get out of my head...

"Woh, woh, yeah, yeah....I love you more than I can say....I love you twice as much tomorrow...woh, woh I love you more than I can say...."

This will be my last post in China as we are homeward bound in the morning. Can't wait to be HOME.

Love, Kira and Mei
