He's Ours




As of about 11 am we officially adopted Jayden. We sign and sealed all the documents. The only paper work left is to get him a passport and visa. We'll do that Monday. We went to Wal-Mart today it it was three stories underground. No air conditioner...very hot, and very humid. We shopped for 45 minutes, which was 40 too many for me. As you can see from the outside of Wal-Mart is was raining today. More later.

I feel very happy for you and Jayden, but why not one of the thousands of orphans from your own country rather than from one which is already wary of outsiders swooping to snatch up their children? I guess we can't expect much from a country which idolises the likes of Angela Jolie. Sorry, not meaning to ruin your moment - it's just that it seems strange why people identify with the Chinese so much when there's so many children at home...
