We Have A Daughter

Please join us in welcoming Miaya to our family.

It was the longest day of our lives, the waiting all day was horrible! Then the moment almost came too quickly, as the babies were swiftly passed out to the waiting parents. Jin Yu Zhu, now to be known as Miaya has been a "perfect baby". Our guide/facilitator has repeatedly warned us that we may not get a "perfect baby", and that there may be issues to face. It has only been a few hours, but so far it has only been smiles, giggles and laughs. She has eaten well and enthusiastically, and enjoyed her bath. Oh, we know there will be some rough times ahead, but so far it has been great.

She is darling!! I spoke with John at 6:30 Monday evening- after we spoke. He said to tell you he was so happy for ya'll and congrats. He also said they made it all the way across today so Amtrak should be moving by July 3rd or within a couple of days thereof. They are well ahead of schedule. Plenty of time for the homecoming!! How's that for pulling strings!!!!
