Meeting No 2 with Yoo Rim


Another amazing experience.


We had nearly 3/4 hour with Yoo Rim alone after meeitng with the social worker and foster mother. It was nearly overwhelming for the little girl as we had to work hard to keep her amused. The afternoon was past her normal nap time. Mrs Lim explained that she was a little tired which did not help Yoo Rim's temperament but after Liz transferred her into a padaggi on her back Yoo Rim settled into a patient and familiar position. We will certainly get fitter if walking around with a baby on our back is a way to setle her.


We anticipate a long flight home but thanks to Mrs Lim we are gaining many little tips to help us during the early days with Yoo Rim.

Hi Liz & Bill we are really enjoying following your journey through your blog, isn't the world of computers wonderful. Your daughter looks absolutely beautiful you guys must be so excited. I bet you are wishing you could spend the whole time with her, that bit must be very frustrating. Looks like you are seeing as much as you can in your spare time and taking in as much of Korea as you can. Love the sketch of you guys can't wait to see it on your wall. Keep sending the photos etc as we are watching and we are there with you guys in spirit. Lots of love from your friends downunder Wendy, Dick and little Rub's

Hmmm... So.... how much do I charge for the trainning of 2 puppies for best behaviour around 8 month old girls.
Bella is learning not to play with her mouth but still licks R clean when invited by R (all the time!). Monty is learning that nap time is not the time for boystrous play & barking!
Both now know that at meal times an baby is your best friend & can now sit to attention under the high chair with amazing paitence!!!
Both are progressing well & should be ready for family fun when Amelie & her old folks arrive home!!!
Look forward to meeting you at the hospital - I mean airport.
Safe journey!
