Today!

We haven't gone to the orphanage yet.  We go at 1pm this afternoon.  Yesterday we just bought books for the English program.  Bai hua will get to give them.  Huang Mama will not be there today as it is a Saturday.  Bai Hua will call her tonight though.  She says that she wants to go to visit the orphanage today.  I do not think it will be that big of a deal but you never know.  I think she is really going to miss Marie when we leave Chongqing.  Marie is someone that she knows.
 
We will have Marie explain that this is the last time she will visit the orphanage and that we will leave for Guangzhou tomorrow morning and then go to the US next week. 
 
She is funny.  She thinks we should go get the Trotter family each time we do something.  She is very sweet and shares everything.  She actually rode in the stroller yesterday for a while.  I think that she really wants to but she won't let herself.  We pushed her very fast while jogging and she loved it.  At the airport we will put both girls on a cart with the luggage. they will love it!
 
Chongqing is an incredible city.  I wish that it was more handicap friendly so that we could enjoy more of it.  We have done extremely well though considering.  We have had a blast and are bonding very well.  Kennedy LOVES having a sister.  I hope that this lasts after we get home. :-)  I think it will though.  Bai Hua is extremely lovable.  She has a way of melting everyone's heart that she meets.  We are definitely in love with her.
 
I will post a picture of the girls a bit later.  We went to the Chinese department store last night and got outfits.  Oh my, we are dolled up today!  We will also post some pictures of the books and the drop off.  Marie says that we can't take photos in the orphanage so I am a bit bummed.  I am glad that we sent Bai Hua 6 cameras!
 
Talk to you soon!
