On our last day in China all that is on schedule is a visit to the US Consulate. Their offices used to be right next door to our hotel, The White Swan, but they've relocated across town. So it was a nice bus ride. Our last day there and we finally got to see the sun. It had rained pretty good on Monday. Got soaking wet coming back from Grace's medical exam. We had an umbrella that we borrowed from the hotel. Charlene was pushing the stroller and I was holding the umbrella to keep the two of them dry. At first the rain was light but Grace was still getting a little on her legs, so I gave the umbrella to Charlene, took Grace out of the stroller so Mommy could carry baby. They stayed mostly dry. In less than a minute, nothing on me was dry.
Anyway, everything went smooth as silk at the Consulate. They just needed to verify our identities with our passports. The last thing was to take an Oath of Citizenship for Grace.

WELCOME HOME,STUMP FAMILY---
It's good to have you back in the USA and Gracie is in her new home with Mom and Dad. I hope this means we might be seeing some pictures soon. But, I guess we'll all give you time to go thru mail,unpack,etc. I'm so glad Grace did well on the flight. That is great. I can't believe the journey's over.
You sure came home with a nice souvenir of your trip!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE YOU--AUNT CAROLYN
