Almost home

I had so much more to blog about the end of our time in Gaungzhou, but things got really busy right at the end, and we had to catch a train right after a swearing in ceremony at the US Consulate (more on that later), barely had time to say good bye to XiXi, and all the while lugging 5 pieces of luggage onto a train.

Anyway, I can come back to all that later. I write while sitting in the New Jersey airport, so I don't quite feel at home yet. They do speak the same langauge here, but with a different dialect, and it is very international here as well.

God has really given us a gem in Sean. There were several moments on the plane when he cried, but it didn't last long. This guy is a traveller, so he fits right into our family. And he's a deep sleeper. Once asleep, noise doesn't seem to bother him. He has other than the first few days, he is attaching to Dawn-which is good, but that means she gets to do the holding of him quite a bit. Also, for those of you who will see him in the near future, he doesn't like stuffed animals...don't know why, but he kind of fusses at that. He does like to imitate things like talking on the phone, playing with buttons that light up, ect....

Well, the mind is starting to fog over so I better sign off. More thoughts, highlights, and photos coming soon. Thanks for following our journey to China to adopt Sean, and for praying for us, we certainly appreciated that.
