millie.

my life has officially changed.
a new person has been added to our family. for 10 months. and her name is millie.
it all came about when nathan and i wanted to go to washington d.c. with our new school. it was too expensive and we didnt see how it would be possible. then, on the radio, my mom heard about a school called fairmont that needed people to host a chinese student for the year. we talked about it and eventually decided to do that so nathan and i could go on the trip. we decided that a girl would be the best for the family and we applied.
a 16 year old girl was placed with us. her name was manyu. (dont try pronouncing it because it'll be wrong.) she arrived on saturday with on e big suitcase for the year. she talked if asked a question and had fairly good english.
today was her first day being at school. she had testing. we'll pick her up at 4. i wonder what the next 10 months are going to be like?
