We started Wednesday by meeting Emily and her 5 children at CCAI for culture camp. Natalie is doing culture camp with Catherin for 3 days. Emma is doing 5 days.
We got the girls settled at the camp, and talked to Xia, the charity director at CCAI. I am a HUGE fan of Xia's and all she does for children. I hope to travel with her to China on one of her trips.
After that, it was off to the park with the other 4 children and Teagan. Let me say, Teagan has mad love for Emily's younger daughter Amy.
Teagan could not get enough of Amy. She is a SUPER big sister.
After camp, we met Emma and family at the pool.
After that, it was time for "happy hour" which for the girls meant, Shirley Temples, nachos, card games and nintendo.
Time for dinner - more Shirley Temples (Yep, Natalie's Mom must be Thrilled with my parenting::)
Then, time for movie night. This was Cat's first sleep over by the way. BIG BIG DEAL!

ReplyDeleteHi Michelle - I've really enjoyed reading your blog. I found it when doing a search for Angel Home. My husband and I are waiting to bring our son home from China - he, too, is at the Angel Home in Beijing. I have a few questions I'd like to ask you and couldn't find a way to email you via your blog. Could you email me if you have a chance? Thanks! Caryn
