		<description><![CDATA[I know there are a few folks who have been waiting for a Merry update. I apologize for not getting to this sooner but we are just exhausted and are making it through this (barely) one day at a time. She is improving every day but that doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s not incredibly difficult. I theoretically [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With bated breath we headed to the visa medical appointment. Merry was loaded up with ibuprofen and we headed out thinking good thoughts of a normal temperature and a patient child(ren). We made it to the new building with no issues. The medical exam used to be done on Shamian Island but it&#8217;s moved to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m kind of an emotional wreck today. Due to a procedural change in the way the baby&#8217;s passport is applied for and issued we were required to apply in person in the city she is from. Her city, Nanyang, is about a 4 hour drive from the provincial capital, Zhengzhou, where we are now. Regardless [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We left off last night with some sister playtime&#8230; Today we finalized Merry&#8217;s adoption. This means that she is now ours legally and forever. We started the day out early with breakfast at the hotel where Merry ate 422 dragon fruits. I exaggerate only a little. She LOVES these things &#8211; and they even provide [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s okay. I think you&#8217;ll get the idea. On the way out the door: The view from the provincial office while we were [...]]]></description>

So I did what any other parent would do (I hope) which was dose her with Benadryl. (Full disclosure: her allergies are a mess here so combined with a cold has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[my beautiful, beautiful girl turned 5. And don&#8217;t worry &#8211; her birthday wasn&#8217;t overlooked in the slightest. We had a party. Or two. Actually, we had three. One in early March with my family. There was cake, special time with Mamaw &#038; Papaw, and crafts (PAINTS!) with the cousins. And then there were Ariel (notice [...]]]></description>

For people who speak the language of Chinese adoption &#8211; our DS230 and NVC cable were dropped off on 14 February with pickup set for 28 Feb. (I can&#8217;t wait for this weekend [...]]]></description>

We were beyond thrilled &#8211; waaaayyyyyy beyond thrilled &#8211; to see this. She looks awesome! Tiny but she looks healthy, I think. And, be still my heart, just look at [...]]]></description>
