So Many Changes, So Much to Learn!

It really is amazing how much Chao Yan has done over the past 3 weeks! She has:

-met her new father for the first time
-traveled by airplane 3 times to 3 different parts of China
-stayed in 5 different hotels
-traveled from China to Chicago to Washington, DC to Binghamton on 3 different planes
-met her mom for the first time, along with her four brothers and sisters
-met aunts, uncles, grandma, and family friends for the first time
-gone to the dentist
-gone to the eye doctor and will have new glasses this week
-visited a friend who lives in NY and is from the same orphanage
-toured her new school
-visited her mom's classroom

By the end of this week, she will have also:
-gone to the doctor
-met her new teacher
-gone to the dentist again

WOW...what a busy 3 weeks, huh? At first, she was very scared and didn't want to try new things. Now she is eager to start school and meet new friends!
