We've been operating at hyper-speed all weekend. We each have a long To Do list of things to be purchased, documents to be checked, dog-sitters and house-sitters to be contacted, and baby clothes to be washed. And I'd thought we were so prepared!
One of Donna's tasks this weekend was creating a soft photo album so Mia can begin to get acquainted with her new home. Our adoption agency was very kind to provide us with photo captions in both English and Chinese. Just print out the photos, paste on the captions, and voila! Maybe by the time we arrive in China, we'll know enough Mandarin to say "This is your Mother and this is your dog" in Mia's native language. (At this point, the closest Donna can get is "Woman with a dog.")
