Gotcha!!

Well the day is here I have had zero time to write! An Qi is here and is now to be known as Angie, which she prefers. She knows how to say yes in English and right now Michelle and her are going through the phrase book together, although all I that hear is Chinese so I think that they are doing it wrong :-)

Angie seems pretty happy but I can't imagine what is going through her head. We have spent some time with translators but don't want to overload her with too much info at once. So we are taking it slow for now.

More later...
