We left to go to the Civil Affairs office at 2:00 p.m. and it was about a 20 minute drive. When we arrived there were 6 other families there to meet their children, but next week there will be 35!
We met Jin Qing today and she is such a sweet young lady! She adores Jadyn and certainly has taken on the role of big sister quite well already:) She is shy and doesn't like to have her picture taken, but when you see her smile it just simply melts your heart. She was a little nervous, but said to be happy to be joining our family. She arrived at the Civil Affairs office at about 2:50 p.m. and she was very tired. She is easy going, gentle and kind. We completed the necessary paperwork and came back to the hotel just before 4:00 p.m. Then, Jerry and our guide Grace, took Jin Qing to the 7/11 for some drinks and snacks to hold her over until we can shop tomorrow.
We headed to an early dinner and she had a good bowl of wonton noodle soup then we came back to the room so we could rest and get to bed early. She is tired and we have to get up early to head back to the Civil Affairs office tomorrow for the final paperwork. We cannot believe how blessed we are - truly having three sweet angels join our family through the miracle of adoption!

I'm crying my eyes out!!! What a wonderful day for you all.
Can we Skype at some point? Li Ming is so anxious to talk to Jin Qing. We had a big mid-autumn/Jin Qing adoption day celebration last night!
You guys make a cute family! I remember the curtains she came out of from a year ago. : - ) Or, at least I'm thinking she might have been put back in the room like mine were.
YAY!!! So happy you have Jin Qing!!! And, yes! You have certainly been triple blessed by adoption!!! Congrats!!
