We are in Zhengzhou


We have exchanged a lot of money and bought our baby supplies! Tomorrow morning all 10 families will leave together and go to the place where the children will meet us. We were given a question and answer sheet about Wade or Guo, Xiao Ran as he is known now. We bought the formula he has been drinking and know a little more about his sleep schedule. He likes cookies and drinks water with sugar in it....no wonder he has such full cheeks.

We have a Wal Mart just 15 minutes by foot down from the hotel. What an experience. It's three floors and the carts must have magnets in the wheels because it sticks to the ramp as you change floors. We spent a lot of time checking out the different products. Like who knew Lay's potato chips come in prawn flavor. Or if your brand of duck neck is getting too expensive you can switch to their Great Value brand.

We have also spotted the Chinese postal service trucks...but no post cards or mailboxes.

Well off to dinner and the next post should be what you all have been waiting for, the Brendle family!!! We pray he will get over his fear quickly. If we have a good week we will try to go to Kaifeng later in the week and visit his orphanage.
