One more thing

I was surprised to find out that we will be getting Aric (Jin Jin) at the orphanage today!!

After talking with other CQ families we thought it was standard to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, but Michael says that we will go there today.

That is different than I was thinking.

Rolling with it!

We are meeting in the hotel lobby at 9:00 to leave for pick up and he said that it would take 40 minutes to an hour because of traffic. Oh yeah - traffic laws and driving is so very different. I try just to close my eyes. Alex is enjoying his freedom out of his car seat. Lots of Audi's, VW's here.

Till later

Can't wait to see pictures of your sweet family finally together! We were just in Chongqing in July to pick up Chloe Grace and enjoyed being there. You will love, love, LOVE Michael. We found him to be extremely kind and helpful.
Congratulations!
