YeoWon!

Back in Korea and we had the delight of spending another hour with YeoWon. She is SOOO happy to see us with lots of smiles and jumping around that she must be very well prepped! We are having trouble downloading from our camera but when we get it figured out we will share more photos. Here's what we took from the full iPad before it ran out of space and we had the time to upload:
She is very bubbly and active. She loves to interact, handing flowers back and forth, drawing with Otto, taking turns down the slide. When we talk to her we get a frequent "heeeehhhhhhh?" because she can't understand what we are saying but says a lot of "Umm-ma" "Up-pah" and "Up-bah" for me, Tim and Otto. Tim got her giggling on the rocking horse and it is no problem when the foster mom leaves the room. As a side note I'm not hanging around with a lot of 2 year olds these days but she seems like a big gal - even Otto commented that she is going to catch up to him. Wonder if those 3T clothes we brought are going to work... Tim gave her a piece of gum from my purse and she was pretty persistent about another but after some hard work we got her focused on something else. Great news! We get to take her with us on Thursday next week! Also scary news - in a hotel room, eating restaurant meals with no discernible playground nearby, no stroller, etc! Yikes! Tim reassures me that everything will work out fine and until then we need to do some toy shopping because we believe our visa day at the embassy will be July 3rd. We will head home early after that but don't know exactly when yet...

Yeo-za!! She's peppy and smiley and chipper; a great, great pal for Otto!

Don't worry about her in the motel room, Em. You are the champion car-ride entertainer so think how easy it will be in a whole room!!

May I suggest markers and paper and lots of cute stickers??

Beautiful YeoWon looks like she is already a part of your family! Fun to hear she ia having so much fun with her brother--they will make their own fun in the hotel--don't worry! So glad you have experienced all that is new to you--food, countries, people, sights and smells. Now you will have a deep understanding with Yeowon as she comes home with you and experiences all that is new to her! Love reading your posts and seeing your pictures....remember everything as YeoWon will want to hear you tell the stories over and over again! Safe travels! Becky
