Yesterday was Gotcha Day!! Of course I was a nervous wreck but as soon as I saw Angel walking up the steps, I just knew everything would be ok. She was with a nanny from her orphanage and was being so brave. They had prepared her for what was going to happen and she began calling me Mama right away. However, once we left the building and tried to get in the van, she decided maybe this was not what she wanted. She cried all the way to the hotel and for about 10 minutes after we got to the room. She then calmed down and started to eat a candy that our driver gave her. She then started playing with all her toys, laughing and smiling. Later we went to the restaurant in the hotel, where she ate tons of rice. She did not want me give her a bath, but she did sleep soundly. She woke up in a good mood and did really well when we went back to the civil affairs office. She is a sweet girl who has stolen mine and Josh's hearts. She is amazed at all of the things she sees and is so easy going. She is doing amazingly well for all that she has been through. I know there may be some rough times ahead, but for now was are doing really good. God had blessed us greatly.
