We woke up really early and had breakfast and met our guide and 6 other couples in the lobby to catch our bus to the US Consulate! I thought this whole procedure would be really neat and very orderly, but no! We lined up in a very long line and waited to enter and then waited in another room where we, the parents had to raise our right hands, again, nothing formal, and repeat an oath. Then we had to wait until they called Mya's chinese name and we went to a window and we signed a paper and we were done!!! Very quick!!! THEN...................................................................
The absolute worst FIT happened!! We witnessed a fit that we hadnt since we have had Mya. She was so angry and
crying screaming like we have never seen before! Nothing we did helped comfort her. Other parents would come to us and offer Cheerios and such but nothing worked. And
EVERYONE was staring at us trying to see how I was going to handle this situation. I just prayed and thanked God for giving us such a spicy girl and that He thinks that WE are just the family that she needs to help her and love her and give her the forever family that she deserves!!!!!! Then, I prayed and begged that something that we could do would help calm her down! Then, out of the blue, she settled right down and has been the absolute BEST girl all day long!!
She is such an amazing person and we are truly blessed!!!!!! She even took a nap in the stroller today!! That is such an improvement!!!! God is so good and I count myself honored to be all of my "4" children's
mother Mommy!!!!!!
Here is Mya's US Citizen outfit!!! She looked ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
