Sorry, sorry, sorry!!!

I am so sorry I have not posted sooner. We are doing so well as a new family of 5. Our ceremony went very smoothly as did our 5 hour drive back to Ho Chi Minh City. She played, slept and just took in the sights on our trip back.
She has had a few fearful times, but for the most part it has been amazing. There is no doubt we are living proof of answered prayer! I cannot tell you how obvious it is to us the way God is working through the prayers of his people. It reminds me so much of the way we felt walking through Shawn's back surgery. Thank you for your prayers!
It is good to be back in civilization. It seems like two different worlds: An Giang and Saigon. Both have been good to visit. But, as good as it was to see our litte girl's home town, we are definitely happy to be back in the city.
Our litte girl is amazing! Even with our huge language barrier we are doing really well. She is such an entertainer. I can't wait for you to hear her giggle, sing, and just talk for that matter. We are competely mesmerized by her, and we are sure you all will be as well. She loves to go out on the town, and she really enjoys shopping. The escalator and stairs bring a huge smile to her face. She ended up with a new Barbie and that was exciting too. She is taking life as a big adventure. This has exceeded all of our expectations, not just the process, but our little girl.
We hit Pizza Hut when we got back to Saigon, and she is a fan of pizza. Actuallly, we are finding she is a fan of food in general, except onions. Those she can find like Mason finds a mushroom.
We hope to be coming home on schedule, but that is not certain yet. We have the weekend to explore the city, and then we start working towards coming home again on Monday.
More to come...

We too were the beneficiaries of such prayers and felt so blessed by a smooth transition process for our daughter. I hope it continues to be easy for both you and Mya!
Isn't it amazing how modern HCMC seems all of a sudden? Pizza Hut is a godsend!
