Certificate of Citizenship

It finally arrived and look at Maisie waving, just like in her referral photo!

P2280003 Looking at this picture makes us realize just how much she's changed in the two months since we've returned home. In China she was such a serious, cautious, unhappy little girl. Now her personality is really coming out and she's outgoing, bubbly, fun, silly and smiles all the time. We never thought she would change so much and so quickly, it's just amazing. Life is good.

    Good to know Maisie was single when you brought her home. I'd hate for you to have a son in law so soon!

  27. So glad to hear this, Lisa. It gives us hope. Maya is not enjoying us much here in China. We leave for home tomorrow and your post is just what we need to know that things will get better.
    We love her so much and are hoping that our persistance pays off.
    Maisie is such a beauty!
