Today is Paul William Ogle's one year Gotcha Day. Greg and Mary Louise invited us over for supper and for a visit. We had a wonderful time re-living our China memories and sharing stories of our travel. We were fortunate enough to meet up with the Ogles in Guangzhou and spend our last few days in China with them. We also traveled home on the same cancelled Northwest Flight! Ugh!! Along this adoption journey, we have met so many wonderful people, but none better than Greg and Mary Louise. There's just something about being in a foreign country for 8 days without another American in sight and then hearing the words "Say something in Alabamian" that solidifies a friendship!! Thanks again, Ogle family! We are honored and blessed to share this special day with you!
