We met Beverly at the Peoria airport about 5:00 pm ... she flew in on the smallest plane I think I have ever seen come to the Peoria airport. Poor girl, that seemed small after getting off the 747 before! The kids had their signs that they had worked on and were so proud of. So we took a moment for a picture outside as we were leaving.
We came home and got dinner started ... for her first American dinner, she had TACOS! ha ha It was a first and she did like them, I think. She was outside with the kids awhile, we visited with the neighbor, and had a little time to get the unpacking started. You would not believe all the gifts this girl brought ... it's enough to start a small gift shop specializing in items from China!Now it's about 10 pm and she has had a shower and is thinking about going to bed. She has been up for most all of the last 30 hours, not sleeping much on the plane. Tomorrow we go to school and register for classes and meet the teachers and staff ... it promises to be a full day!

Welcome to the USA Beverly! You look good after all that travel!
Welcome Beverly, how exciting for you and exciting for us who have daughters from China. Hope to maybe see a small insight of China through your eyes and learn more of a culture we feel such a connection too.
Glad you made it safely, Beverly!! Have fun seeing your new school and getting to know everyone!
