Not Yet .....

Unfortunately, we were not able to get LiLi today as hoped. We are scheduled to get her tomorrow morning at 9:30am on July 9th (8:30pm Texas time on July 8th). We were disappointed, but we are also able to rest a bit today after getting checked in to our hotel. We really need it after the past few days (see prior posts for details). Today, we walked around outside of our hotel room {which is really nice by the way} in Changsha. I don’t think we’ve ever felt more out-of-place in our life. We were the only non-Chinese people within site. A really strange feeling (understatement). Everyone (and we do mean everyone) stared relentlessly and analyzed us as they almost fell off of their bike, cart, mo-ped, bus or off the back of the truck they were riding on. Some on the street would try to speak to us…… they are really getting a kick out of Eston. We realize we are not being very detailed or specific in our posts but this whole process is incredible. We know that we haven’t seen anything yet, as tomorrow we will have LiLi and our lives will forever be changed. Thanks to everyone for your comments and emails of support and encouragement.
