3/4/05

Several of you have asked about the airport greeting (i.e. Is it O.K. to come? Do we want a big crowd?). We welcome everyone who is interested in greeting us at the airport to be there. As a matter of fact, if you want to see Katie Lin that's probably the best time to do it. When we leave the airport we will be going back to our home with our close family members and then trying to get as much rest as possible. We will probably live like hermits for a few days while KL (and we) adjusts to the new environment and time zone.

I hope you all understand we are not trying to be selfish snobs, but only looking out for what's best for our daughter. Obviously, we've not done this before, but based on all the families we've talked to about their experiences, I anticipate all of us being very tired and maybe not very social at first. Please don't be sensitive to this. You all have been so gracious to us and you are all an integral part of KL's journey. We look forward to everyone of you being a big part of KL's life with her forever family.

Oh yeah, one more thing. We want our family (sisters, grandparents, great grandparents, etc.) to see Katie Lin first. Please allow them to be "up front" upon our arrival.

Looking forward to seeing you ALL at the airport Saturday!
