We did hear that Mei Mei is doing well, and we hope to receive new pictures soon. We also sent her a video depicting a "day in the life" of our family.
I had the kids hold up time cards,
and then we would show her an activity for that time frame.
We showed our house, school, local stores, the library, and various activities. And we have the advantage of an in-house translator!
I hope it will give her a sense of security, knowing more about our family. I think about her constantly, and wonder what she's thinking.
On another note, I packed medicines and first-aid supplies to take to China. I made a list for our trip to Vietnam, which I simply go back to, then refresh the travel kit.
Little did I know how many times I would go back to that list!

Awesome idea with the kids holding time cards - love it!
LOVE the idea of the video to her!!!!! I can't imagine being that age and going into the unknown. VERY smart mama!
Such a great idea Ann! Thank you so much for sharing so much of your journey to your children. I have a feeling that I am going to be using A LOT of your ideas in the future :) -Alison
