Last post from Guangzhou

We went to the US Consulate this afternoon, it was short and sweet. We took the oath on Katie's behalf and recieved her Chinese passport complete with her visa along with the infamous sealed brown envelope with her paperwork for immigration. We are not to open the brown envelope but are to hand deliver it to the officials in Newark when we get there. We will go through customs in the foreigner line because Katie is still a Chinese citizen however, as soon as the official stamps her passport she will automatically that instant become a US citizen. Pretty cool right.
I am including some photo's of her in her little red, white and blue dress she wore for the occassion today. The dress is a US 3 month but fits her fine.
I am also including a picture of toddlers we saw today out walking with what we believe was their daycare workers. Do you see how they have them organized? We also saw elementary children doing their morning exercises. They marched outside and went through a whole routine. We couldn't help but notice each group had two lines of boys and one line of girls.
Well, its getting late here and we still have packing to do. See everyone soon we are sooo ready!!!
