Wednesday

Good morning all. It is 5:45 pm at home and 6:45 am here so Madison is busy at work looking for snacks and playing with her toys. She is very active. She loves books, too and loves when we read together. She turns the pages in the books. Today we are going to a Pagoda where you can walk up to the top of it, I will take lots of pictures. After that we are going to a Buddhist Temple and then to a DVD store. Should be a great day. I miss seeing everyone and look forward to seeing everyone this weekend. I miss the strawberry kiwi soda or any cold diet soda for that matter, and Pasta Villa and food where you can ascertain what it is made out of. Jen/Two shoes/Maonan Mom: Can you please email me at mailto:aswlaw@aol.com? The blog is still all in German so I can not read the instructions on it or upload pictures. Yesterday I also had problems reading the AOL email. The internet is still pretty sketchy here. Nan Hui Yao was at the orphanage and I took pictures and e- mailed them to her mom. Nan Jun Lin was moved to a foster care home/family, so I could not get pictures of her. I did get some of the orphanage and the Director's office and found out that the Director reads all the email sent to him on the Maonan Families Yahoo site. He speaks English even though he did not say so when I visited. Apparently officials are told not to to preserve their heritage. That is all for now, more after we get back from the busy day! Have a good day everyone.
