We have our daughter!

Greetings from Guangzhou!!!!
Grace has landed! She is absolutely beautiful...She is just so perfect..
It was too funny as soon as we got there she was peeking behind the curtain at us all...at one point she threw a ball across the floor..
She is doing just great with us...She has eaten and even took a bath and let me wash her hair with no tears! She does not like getting her teeth brushed.
The next few days will be very busy and not sure when I can post again. But will soon. Thanks for sharing the journey with us and finally our daughter is here save and sound. Now tomorrow to make it all official.
Love, Anita & Carl

Well guys, I have about worn this computer out just waiting for pictures and stories about our new niece. Grace is so precious and I know that you love her with all your heart. She looks like such a happy baby and I know she is. What wonderful parents you will be.

I know the next several days will be very busy with you all getting to know each other and loving each other more by the hour.

I will continue to monitor both email and Grace's site.

Just know that I'm carrying you all in my heart and in my prayers until you're all safe at home.

Have fun and see all that you can see over there.

Love you so much,
Jerry and Julie

Hi - Thanks so much for the pics! It doesn't sound like you got the wallflower, Anita! So sweet: when I showed the pictures to Evangeline, she pointed at the picture and said "Now there are three"...
I think I can imagine how you feel. Enjoy this magical time. Love, Colleen and Evangeline

We're so very happy to hear that after all of this time, you're finally nearing the end of this journey and beginning the next.

Grace is so very beautiful and adorable.

Our love and best wishes to the three of you!

Kurt, Laurie, Kathy and Sarah

Anita and Carl,
When I saw that first picture of Anita holding Grace with the tearful face, I was sitting at work bawling my eyes out. Such a sweet photo.

Can't wait to meet her.

Love,
Janice
