The day we have been waiting for finally arrived and we got our beautiful Ginger. It was pretty indescribable and I am pretty tired, so I think I will just post a couple of pictures for now and try my hand at the narrative tomorrow.
Suffice to say that it was an amazing experience to be in this big government office with ALL these babies, dressed in the same clothes and mostly crying, while we sat on the other side of the room and waited for them to call our name. I recognized her from across the room.
She is a true Peck, as she slept beautifully through the night, after having fallen asleep on her daddy's chest. She definitely prefers him to me. Every time I hold her she will look up at me and tears will fill her eyes and she will hang her head and cry. It is heart breaking to me, but we must take it one step at a time. She loves loves loves her Daddy and cannot bear to be away from him. So we are here in Nanchang in the freezing cold rain, bonding with our darling girl and hangin out. OK, there are some pics and I am going to go to bed. Will blog more later.
Congratulations - from one Shanggao family to another.
