Every Day A Little Better

Yesterday had to be our best day yet! Less crying and more laughing and smiling. Mak gave Keilani her first kiss last night. We just all layed around on the bed playing and laughing. It was a really good night.
When we were eating breakfast we were treated to great surprise. 300 Americans with their Chinese adopted children are on a heritage trip. We met so many families and got to hear of their great experiences. This is their last stop, after two weeks, before returning home. The children, mostly girls, range in age from 8 to 18 years old. They all spoke about how neat it was for them to visit their orphanages and finding locations. It made Keilani start asking questions about herself that she has never asked about before, like "where was I found?" When we told her on a bridge she thought we were joking. It is going to take her some time to take it all in, but she asking a lot more now that she is here.
Today we are going back to the clinic to have his TB test checked. He should be fine by how it looks. After that it's a free day for us to do whatever. All of us are anxiously counting down the days to return home, we're all home sick.
We will post pictures later today! Missing everyone!
Matt, Tami, Keilani, and Makaio
