Medical Exam Day

Today we had to do Faith's physical for her visa. They did not allow parents to be with their child during the blood drawing. This was an awful moment for us. And Faith was screaming...all I could think of was how far we've come with her trusting us but after the blood draw, we are probably another 5 steps backwards. After the medical ordeal, we headed back to the hotel to do some more paperwork and then we headed to Shamian Island! I gave faith some Motrin and she passed out for most of the sight seeing. When she woke up we started snapping pictures and of course we came across the famous violin statue with the children...but Faith was not thrilled about having to stand up by herself, for a picture. so I have to post this tradition, even though it didn't come out so good:( Faith is much better tonight, she's blabbing away saying things we don't understand. mainly, she is repeating us and the kids and she has us laughing hysterical. She will once in a while touch my face and say mama...it melts my heart. We bought some pearls today with some jade, I am very excited about it. We had a girly shopping day I guess...Fred wasn't too thrilled about the waiting around for us to decide...but its oh so fun to be a mommy of two girls now! I also must say that Freddy and I are so impressed with the affection coming from our children. they are so warm and loving towards their little meimei. I don't know what we would do if our children didn't come along..they are teaching us so much about love. Sigh...God bless them. We are a very blessed family, I cannot thank the Lord enough for the treasures that he has entrusted us with. Glory to the highest!
