Did you actually get to visit a private home? I would love to be able to do that! Tell us more about the pictures!
That is just amazing! How fortunate you were to see that side of China. Thanks for sharing.
Ava looks so happy. I am so excited for you.
Ava is such a beautiful girl! She just looks so peacefully happy and already so well settled in with her Mommy in all of the photos. That little girl could steal anyone's heart away!
I would like to place your blog in my "adoptive families" blogroll. If you would rather I didn't, just let me know...otherwise, I will link to your blog so that I can more easily keep up with it in the days and years to come!
