What an amazing day we had today! We got to spend most of the day loving on some adorable Bamboo Babies. I was also able to meet Gracie's foster mother! It was so exciting to be able to meet her and see where Gracie spent her first years. She was so excited to ask me about Gracie and see new pictures.
Here are some pics from the day:
This is Gracie's foster mother. We saw each other and met before Di was ready with the camera :). She was absolutely precious!
She's looking at the book of Gracie I had printed.
Di made a special connection with this cutie :)
Ms. Meng sang the song "I Love China" for us...so sweet!
Our Changsha Bamboo babies and their foster mothers.
So cute!
This is in front of Gracie's foster home. Her foster mom was quite the hostess and was so happy to have us there. She said Gracie's favorite thing to do was to sing and dance...go figure!
She is showing me a photo album filled with all of her foster children. Gracie was her 8th!!! And she presently has another of our baboo babies...amazing!
It was a precious day that we will never ever forget. Tomorrow promises to be another emotional day filled with precious children and answered questions. I cannot wait!

I love the candid picture of you meeting Gracie's foster mother. What a joyful smile she has! You look so cute in your outfit... love the pants, big flower, and green scarf with blue trim. No wonder the monks are drawn to you!
What a beautiful JOY filled post Jen!!! I am so happy y'all are having such a wonderful trip. How blessed you and Di are you be able to visit with the foster Mothers. So many of us wish we knew how to do the same. You look darling too. I have those pants too (and it looks like maybe you are wearing the bracelet I gave you for your 40th). Made me feel like a part of me went with you to China! I look forward to the next post!
What a special day!
It makes me want a third little one.
