In happier news, in between coughing fits moonshadowed managed to put in quite a bit of work on the mural that's going into China Girl's room.

Wow, that's really great! I hope things work out and that you'll have an extra family member soon. It would be a shame of the nice room you're preparing ^^ Though I do think it's good that the chinese are trying to encourage women to keep their daughters. Or else they'll have a very male society soon, if they keep sending away their girls.

I remember reading a book some time ago about an american woman who had adopted a chinese girl and went to visit the girl's birthtown when she was four. I think it was called "With my daughter to China". I guess I could have known from that that it wasn't very uncommon ^^ How much chance would there be of someone writing a book about it if there weren't many people adopting...

Anyway, if you don't know it already, I thought it was a well written book and it might be interesting to read for you.
