July 13 - Day 1

OK, for all you anxious "followers" out there; here are the first pictures of Sarah. More to come with comments later tonight but she's ours and the first part of the final paperwork is done!

The girls are in bed now and life has become a little less stressful. They are both asleep. Yeah!!.

Well, you have to talk quite a bit to talk more than Rachel and I (Debbie) but Sarah is definitely beating us in the talking and singing department. I think Rachel is now in shock about what a sister really means, taking my things, not giving them back, hiding them. Yes, life has become really interesting. Imagine, two caucasians, two chinese girls, one talking up a storm and us not having a clue what she's saying. She knows want she wants and if we knew what she was saying we could say yes or no quite easily. The tricky bit is knowing what's she asking for. So we're in Pizza Hut and she points to what looks like a chocolate milkshake drink and so what's the big deal, we know what it feels like to point a lot in China and then hopefully get what we think we want. So the waitress brings out the drink which is bascially a chocolate dessert drink with a scoop of ice cream on top. Yep, she ordered herself dessert before we had even gotten our pizza. So much for Simon and I valuing communication. Picture of this below!
