Life in China before Maya

The morning of Gotcha day

Hey boys, family and friends. It is the morning of the day we grab and run with Maya. We had an uneventful and restful last 12 hours. I did get a Chinese massage with 15 other people in our group. We sipped hot tea and ate fruit as the international language of love took place. Patti was not interested, I obviously was. We hung out with our new friends and ate along the river at a restaurant at the hotel. The local people are very nice here. We are being treated very well. A lot of people speak a little English, but it is still pretty hard to communicate.

By the time you wake up in the morning we will have Maya in our arms. We are excited. We will get photos on here of the baby ASAP.

Ryan, Jake, Cal, and Trevor. We love and miss you. Thanks for getting along and helping Grannie and Granpie. We will call you tomorrow in the am.

Hello Matt, Patti and Maya-

She is precious - you both look happy (but maybe a bit tired). Your dad will be visiting when he gets home (weekly visit which we look forward to) and will update all the news from home and abroad! Soon you will all be together - a joyful family! Uncle T and Aunt A
