And then there was one more..,

Today has been a wonderful day, with a little bit of a rough start. I get to the orphanage and went upstairs to a small cozy room.  Everyone is speaking Chinese. Before I could get the camcorder set up and my camera handed to the coordinator Brea walks into the room. A little boy was following her crying. When I looked at Brea for the first time she had tears running down her face. My heart melted and I was crying on the inside. The little boy was her foster brother and they were very close. 

I got the picture book out and we started looking at our family. She new everyone. They must have told her before. We sat looking at pictures while I asked some questions. 

When we left we came back to the hotel to try on cloths. Praise The Lord they fit perfectly.  She was excited to have new cloths and changed her shirt at once. 

She like pretty things. I brought some brackets for her and she will not take them off.  We went shopping and she asked for everything ( that is new to us, our other three still have a hard time asking for things). She learned very quickly that Mama knows how to say no. 

She is starting to bond. She hold my hand all the time. She likes to keep an eye on everything I do. She keeps asking to see Papa. 

She is a strong girl who will ask for help when needed and the rest she does by herself. She is going to move mountains one day. 

I am still adjusting to the time. I will work on getting some photos on here before I go to bed.
