This is the Red Thread Bracelet my sister Lisa gave me for Mother's Day!

Mother's Day

On Mother's Day, my sister Lisa and her husband Rob invited the family over for brunch. Everyone was there: Lisa and Rob, Art, Ruthann, Zach and Jake, my parents, and me and Guy. Lisa gave me a red thread bracelet. There is an ancient Chinese proverb that reads: "An invisible red thread connects those destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but never break." The bracelet symbolizes the red thread. (I will post a picture of the bracelet!) It was a great Mother's Day! Guy gave me my first Mother's Day card, my sister Lisa gave me a card too as well as my mother-in-law and sister-in-law!

I can't wait unitl next year when the baby is with us on Mother's Day!

Adoption Travel Meeting

Tomorrow our agency, Great Wall, is having an adoption travel meeting. We are very excited to be going. We will get to meet some people who have travelled already, but mostly people like us, who will be going to China very soon. They are going to go over all of the specifics of what to pack, what we will be doing, etc. More to follow on this!
