Jackie's Journey to Julia

The Scoop on Julia -- 16 hours does a lot

Well... we now have a chatting, opinionated, eating, drinking, peeing, laughing, smiling little girl.

She has latched onto James like velcro or one of those dang dryer sheets you find on your butt 4 hours into your work day.

She is now interacting with Jacob and I and laughing -- but James is the personal escort through life right now. I figure -- she will come around -- and at least she knows that if you tell someone you have strong feelings - they listen!

I will get more pics later -- right now we are ready for lunch and a nap. Tomorrow we go see Pandas.

The important thing is this; She is a healthy, happy, very TWO little girl! She spent our time in the civil affairs office racing a car around with James. She LAUGHED! Right now she is arguing with James about whether or not she wants the lid on her cup. She played with Cherrios and the cherrio book -- loves the stacking cups -- spent breakfast taking the sugar packets in and out of a bowl. She loves books and is very attached to the picture of Joy that she has. We have not gotten shoes on her yet.

Jennie - Fa is healthy with the same cleft needs. I was not clear but he may need a palette repair and you might want to do some research on that. He is reported to be "A very chubby baby". Julia, on the other hand is NOT. Jennie -- I have Fa's finding ad and you will too. Mr Puh took his package and will give it to the foster family for Fa so you can rest well knowing that he got it.

I also was given the amazing gift of her mother's birth note. It says "We wish happiness to the adoptive family".... her mother placed her in a spot HOPING she would be adopted. What an amazing thing to be able to give to her when she is older....

Mr Puh said that they hope to get a webpage for the orphanage -- I am hoping that we can see that happen.

Okay ... we need to get lunch and naps.... Just want you to know that all is well. No more tears... she doe not feel as hot -- I am guessing the wildwomen were right -- stress or a little bug. I will feel better when we get some real food in her....

More later.

Jack
