We are at the Hope Foster Home
We arrived safely at the Hope Foster Home and are currently the only volunteers.
There are about 47 babies here at the moment and we spent most of the day with Robin, Joyce and their daughter Katie. This is a wonderful place and we have a private room with a bathroom and shower. There is no air conditioning upstairs so we are with a fan in our room. MacLean played with Katie who just turned 8 and is still on summer vacation. Tomorrow, Monday we will meet Joyce at 8:30 am to talk about what we will do. It is going to be fun to play with the babies, do scrapbooks and whatever else they need. Katie and MacLean swam in the pool most of the afternoon and we enjoyed snacks and getting to know each other.
I will post some pictures tomorrow, we are off to bed.

Hey Sha and Maclean!
Very cool blog. It looks awesome and your narratives are great! The great wall tour and the Warriors museum look very cool. I'm sure I would have loved that.
I do have a question about the "squats". Do guys go in teh same things and hope their aim is good or do they have regular urinals? Seriously...I haven't a clue!
Anyway, enjoy your time at the foster home and try not to bring home too many little sisters! See ya when you get back!

Hi Shauna and Maclean,
Wow! what an adventure. Kale and I were just having a look at everything you have been doing. I think it is wonderful that you are there lending a hand and showing Maclean around China. We will check in again - have fun.

Hi Shauna and Maclean...wow, what a trip you guys are having...I'm exhausted just reading it, but at the same time, it sounds just awesome!! I'll have to show your pic's to my girls tomorrow. Sophia especially is intrigued by the Great Wall (she calls it "the great big wall in China"). *grin*
