Day 63 and no news yet

There's not really much to add at this point, but I really need to start packing and getting everything ready for our trip. When we do get word, we may have only a couple of weeks to make all of our travel plans.

We are following the journal of a family adopting another 3 year old girl from Chengdu. It is going amazingly well for them and their little girl seems to adore her new family. Let's hope Pearl's transition is even half as good as that. I think the difference is Pearl is living with a foster family and I think their little girl was living in the orphanage. Pearl will probably have a lot of grieving for the loss of her foster parents and siblings.

I am attaching some pictures of Pearl's room. It is still pretty empty, but that is mostly because all of the toys are in the playroom downstairs. I am hoping that the girls will want to share a room since Pearl's room has two closets and Chloe's room has none. We will just have to see how Pearl's sleeping habits are.

We will post here immediately once we have word.
