Doctors, Papers, Shopping, and Ma-Ma

Today we had our little one's medical exam. She LOVED it (not!) We had a minor fuss over her infection but got through it with Jocelyn's help, interpreting.

Tom spent most of the afternoon completing final paperwork, while Mommie and Ellie went shopping. They did more browsing than actual shopping, but the week is still young...

We had dinner at Lucy's, including the first glass of white wine we've seen this trip. But the real highlight of dinner was Ellie looking at Karen and saying: "Ma-Ma!"

We don't know whether she was speaking English or Chinese. Doesn't matter! She meant it, either way!

I'm glad Ellie is getting better and the "Ma Ma" put tears in my eyes. Looking at some of the pictures, it looks like Ellie is opening up to you too Tom. Wonderful!!! Enjoy and take care of each other!

I am glad to see that Ellie is opening up to you, Tom, and Karen, too. . . but I'm still waiting to see pictures of the famous smile. I hope the little one is feeling better soon. And by the way, what is Lucy's? Is it a particularly well-known place?

Hope you hear Pa-Pa soon. Ni Hao to Eleanore.
