We had to call our agency for a question about how to spell Emma's Chinese name. They said it is however we prefer to spell it. (?????) So we asked how should we spell it on the paper work? It doesn' matter was the response. Still puzzled at the answer, but anyway. In the same conversation she told us how to pronounce her chinses name too. It is not how we thought and how it looks. Can is pronounced "tsan," she said like in the end of "cats." And Xiao is pronounced "she-ow." "Tsan She-ow" Say that 10 times real fast.
Jenn sent our little daughter a care package today. She sent her a new little outfit, a little plush toy, rubber ducky, a framed pictured of Emma for her foster parents, a small photo album with pictures of us in it for Emma (with chinese labels indicating "Mama and Baba"), and a disposable camera so her foster parents can hopefully take pictures of where they live, themselves, and Emma in the meantime while we wait to travel. According to the USPS, it should be there in 6-10 business days.

I bet it was a joy to put that package together. I hope you get lots of fun pictures of Emma in her current placement. That will be fun to scrapbook for her. You continue to be in my prayers.
