We are HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, we are finally home where we belong!!!! We got home Thursday night to a wonderful homecoming at the airport. So many friends were there to greet us and to meet Jada. Even my brother and his wife drove 4 hours to meet their little niece for the very first time. Everyone was waving American flags for Jada. By the end of the gathering, little Jada was hamming it up for everyone so people did get to see a bit of her beaming personality. She has meet Annie and loves to pet her but comes back to me when Annie gets up to lick her when Jada realizes how much bigger that dog is than her. It is cute. Don't worry, I am not allowing very much time between the two yet. I thought Jada did really well on the long flights home considering she does not like to be held while trying to sleep. She did cry her "scare cry" a couple of times and it was hard to console her. But, she was a trooper considering all the changes she had to go through the last 2 weeks. WOW................ I think we are both feeling jet lag today. She is more fussier today and does not seemed to want to see anyone just yet. So, we are just keeping to ourselves. I am planning to go home for Thanksgiving to be with my parents. I know they are anxious to see both of us. Before I close, thank you all for your support and prayers. It was a very hard trip. No regrets but it was indeed the hardest thing I ever had done. I hope you enjoyed my journaling (I am sorry to say that a few of my journals and pictures from China did not go through) and the pictures. Thank those of you who drove all the way to the airport to greet us. It was such a fun homecoming and someday she will see the many pictures and videos and know how much everyone wanted to see her for the very first time!!!!!!!!! I am home with my daughter. God is Good and I thank him for this little gift. I will be keeping in touch through this web page for a while so keep checking!!!!

We love you all from Kansas City..........Jane&Jada
