Sarah is coming out of her shell more and more each day and now lets Nathan hold her without crying. Yesterday, Emily had Sarah laughing and giggling. At the moment, Emily and Sarah are playing with small toys and having a good time. This is a big change from the last 4 days when all she wanted was to be carried around, mostly by me (Debbie). We have also witnessed new things about Sarah. A man and boy were waving at Sarah in the hotel and she waved back! She has also blown kisses at us.
Yesterday, Cordelia took us out to shop. First we went to a huge mall full of only jewelry stores. We bought a pearl necklace for Sarah. Our next stop was the electronics mall. We found a 10 mega pixal digital camera ($60 us) for Emily to use and she has taken about 300 pictures already.
The highlight of the day was when Nathan video taped Cordelia translating a "Child's Memory Book" which was kept for Sarah from when she was a 12 day old baby through October 15th of this year. We really appreciate this gift and someday Sarah will appreciate this as well. The Child's Memory Book was made possible because of Half the Sky Foundation which was created to "enrich the lives and enhance the prospects for orphaned children in China..."
