We had a rough night last night with both Clara and Caleb waking up quite upset. But today was a new day and Clara was showing some of her wonderful personality! She has the best laugh! She has made so much progress in just 24 days. She is calling everyone by their name especially Mama and Baba. She is looks to be held and is interacting with all of us.
You may notice that she is wearing the same thing, but she does not quite trust us enough to change her clothes. Afterall right now that is all she has from her home.
Today we went and signed all of the paperwork to make it official. When that was all done we went shopping at the Carrefour (like Walmart) and Caleb got a dancing bus and Clara got a princess set. She asked the whole walk home where her toy was.
It is great having our guide here as she translates what Clara is saying and that is a lot.
Mom and Dad are doing well.. It think we are all looking forward to going to Bejing where there will be other families with us and more food options.
Tomorrow we are going sight seeing.
Of course here are more pictures!!
Love following along on your fabulous journey!!
ReplyDeleteHi Family, we were thrilled to look at the pictures and see Clara laughing, that's an awesome beginning. Thanks for keeping us so caught up. It's a blessing to know your Mom and Dad are there to help and I'm sure it's a blessing for them to get to see your new family bond. Ok, when are you getting to Cape Breton, we're waiting. What kind of toys does Clara seem to like, we now Mr Caleb is all about the cars. Love you all very much, God Bless!! Aunt Margie and Uncle Kenny
