March 6, 2006....Sierra's first day at a zoo. We went to visit the zoo in Guangzhou. It had been raining but turned out to be a pretty nice day. She loved seeing the animals. We were a little concerned because while shopping we ran into a couple cats and she freaked out. So we weren't sure but all went well. We did a lot of shopping today!! That is always fun especially with the prices being so cheap!! We are wondering now if we are going to have enough suitcase room. We might need to go shopping for a new suitcase too!!! We want to thank all of you who are emailing us or leaving comments it means so much and it gives us such support while we are a half way around the world from all of you!! Thank you for all your prayers, too!! Believe me they are being felt!! Sierra continues to be doing great. She is actually starting to bond with Mike. She is sitting with him on his bed while they watch TV together!! That is a huge step. She keeps looking for me to make sure I have not left but at least she is sitting with him. We continue to miss you all and Ms. M please tell all my family at MWCP I said hello and that I miss everyone too!! Please also tell the boys and the one beautiful girl in your room I miss them soooo much and I cannot wait until they each get to meet Sierra!!!!!
