Xian and me in China

Meeting people on the streets in China and showing off my little granddaughter was a great thrill. I carried a small card, which Kris had given me; it was printed in Chinese and read, “I come to China to adopt one of your little girls. I will always love her and will teach her about beautiful China. I will never let her forget her heritage.” I would show the card to the people that gathered near. It was all that was needed to break the language barrier. Their comments and actions brought tears to my eyes more than once.
