Yesterday we went to Meng's orphanage. We got to see the babies who were all so adorable and i want to take them all home with me... but mom said i couldnt. The toddlers were so cute! a few of them would just run up to you and give your legs hugs. its so sweet! its hard to imagine why some people wouldnt want such sweet children. its so sad that none of them have homes, at least not yet. One boy i fell in love with in particular. and Heritage actually has his file! i wanted him so badly, i dont know his name but he is almost 4 and he is in special needs, but i wanted to being him home, but im not allowed to! we saw two other girls who are getting adopted and get to go to their new homes in a couple of months so it was excited to see them, one of them even spoke some english. she was a nice girl! the other one wasnt too sure of what was going on. i think we may have frightened her some. but she got presents and i dont know any child who doesnt like gifts.

Today we went to the "flower and bird market" It was out side and the little stores sold pretty much exactly as the title of the market, birds anf flowers. some of them sold some art, and big rocks which personally i cant imagine anyone being able to get back to their house, or what in fact they plan to do with a huge rock.

there were alot of fish, and birds of course, we felt bad for them because they had so many to each cage or tank they could hardly move. There were puppies there too which was the same, too many dogs for one kennel, and same goes for the rabbits and kittens. the kittens we saw had flees, and i felt so bad for them. mom told us to look at the sky if we couldnt look down, which i suppose is pretty good advice. There were lots of clay pots and some were way taller then my dad and hes over 6'!

tomorrow we fly... again... to Guangzhou and meet my brothers. right now they are still flying.
