I wish I could show you!

We have had Jade since yesterday. We offically signed the papers today. She is now our legal daughter. I can't wait until you meet her, her laugh is contagious! She is so beautiful, we are so blessed. I will post pictures when we get home. I talk to Asia every night on skype and she just stares at me. I finally got her to blow me a few kisses. We went shopping today and Jade got minnie sparkle shoes. We ate at a restaurant called a hotpot. They unfortunately had no silverware and it took us a long time to eat. Jade had to show me how to eat certain things. Chopsticks are hard to use. She's one smart girl. Andrew and Olivia just adore Jade, they think she is pretty wonderful. I hope everyone reading this has a blessed day.

We're in China!!

We made it! It was a long flight. We are really tired. Will post more tomorrow.

We promise to come back soon, with your new sis!

We leave in the morning for China!!
The hardest thing is leaving Asia at home...
