I don't want Carson to hate China as the place where he was abandoned, I want him to celebrate it as the place where a group of wonderful people cared for him until we could get there to become his Forever Family. He slightly rejected all things Chinese at first but now tells Meggie, "China is cool. You NOT Chinese!" I think it is HYSTERICAL and a great comeback when/if he gets teased for being "different."<BR/><BR/>I'd play Bunko with you any day and be incredibly jealous of your collection of Chinese dresses!!<BR/><BR/>Teresa =)Teresa =)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16569644850185853404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858377463839794194.post-7680802031280624932009-03-14T18:16:00.000-07:002009-03-14T18:16:00.000-07:00Oh Mary, I am so sorry the evening started off on ...Oh Mary, I am so sorry the evening started off on the wrong foot.
