It's Official...We have a daughter!

IT'S OFFICIAL ... FANGYING IS OUR DAUGHTER!

Around three o'clock today, FangYing officially became
our precious little girl! She smiled a lot and behaved
quite well at the meeting. The interview was easy. Our
family picture was made; we signed the official docu-
ments, and we were on our way to shop for clothes for
FangYing. She is a great shopper. We'll have lots of fun.

Last night we were startled by the doorbell ringing in
the night. I was waiting on Guy to answer the door. He
thought the bell was in his dreams. The next thing we
knew, a gentleman was standing in the doorway! As soon
as he saw us in bed, he took off. We felt confident that it
was someone on staff who made a mistake coming to our
room. (We failed to lock our door, which is highly unusual for us.

Jane checked into the incident. The next thing we knew,
a lovely, fragrant bouquet of white lilies was found on the
desk in our room, along with a delicious cream cake! We
hope the staff didn' t get into trouble, but we sure are enjoying
our wonderful gifts!

At dinner tonight, Guy got up to get a plate of food at the buffet.
FangYing seemed a little upset as she spoke in Chinese. I asked
the manager of the restaurant what she was saying. He replied
with a smile, "She told him to sit down." I laughed when he told me.

This afternoon Guy was playfully teasing FangYing. The next thing
we knew, she was chewing him out in Chinese. She keeps us smiling.
