Miscellaneous

Below is an official Chinese document related to our adoption process. Notice the foot print. During the document signing process I had to leave a finger print or two. So I rolled my thumbprint, you know like they make you do at the department of homeland defense. Our Lifelink guide, Echo, said I left my print like a criminal LOL. Man I'm taking flak 7000 miles from home.



This was interesting. We saw the following sign a couple hours before gotcha hour. GuoZhen being Maimie's Chinese name.



Another interesting circumstance for which I didn't get a picture. As we rode the elevator down immediately after having gotten Maimie, I looked down and the elevator floor mat contained one word "Monday" written in English and Chinese. Must have known we were coming.

God certainly has been in this entire process. Love the little footprint (we noticed the bare foot in the photo with Mikaela and Joseph)! We can tell the kids are already in love with Maimie. Are her feet tiny? She looks like she probably wears a 12 or 18 month size. Thanks for sharing with everyone!!!
