What an exciting day! Very early this morning, my sister Lisa and her family of 5 arrived home from China from a life-changing 15-day trip adopting their newest member, five-year-old (she'll be 6 in a few days) Julia Jie, a.k.a. 'Jie Jie'. After just four hours of sleep, they awoke to their 8:00 a.m. alarm this morning determined to embrace the day...a.k.a. avoid jet lag. (If they succeed in this--the avoidance of east to west jet lag, that is--I will have to eat my shorts. Good thing I don't own any.) Anyway, as part of "embracing the day", we got to visit!
She is amazing. Brave. Resilient. Funny. Silly. Brave. Loving. Adorable. Brave. And loved. Today we met a little girl who, I have no doubt, will amaze us the rest of our lives.
Welcome Home, Jie Jie. We love you.
