All about Kayla
I could tell you about Nanning. How green and lush it is here this time of year with temperatures close to that in Florida. But instead, Ill just show you an adorable smile that makes my heart sing....
Were learning more about Kayla everyday.
She does not like a diaper change and will gator roll at the first chance.
She LOVES mashed potatoes (yes, weve already eaten at KFC).
Sha could stare at herself for hours in the mirror.
Shes not so big on prunes (who is really)
She loves playing with Grandma and Grandpa.
Kayla is officially part of the family. We gave our red thumb prints and she gave her little red footprint to seal the deal on Tuesday. Now were just hanging out and sight seeing until we have her chinese passport back on Friday.

Im sure the prayers of my small group had something to do with that. After the flight, the plan was go to the hotel, do a smal...
