Katie got to see the terra cotta warriors today, and she really seemed to like them. She met another family there who is adopting a 9 year old girl. Their 14 year old was also with them, and Katie really enjoyed being with them. They were really helpful and we hope to be able to keep the girls in touch once everyone is in the United States.
Katie told her new guide that she really wants to get to America and see her new family. For a lot of reasons, we decided that this might be better than having her see Beijing during the last four days of the trip. I was able to change their flights, so they are now coming home on Friday, April 11th (instead of April 15th)! So, they won't be going to see some of the sites I wanted to share with you at the end of their trip. But for Katie, the biggest thing in her life will happen a few days sooner. She will finally have a family.
