Awesome posts. It has never occured to me to ask, possibly because of all that we went through, "Why did you/are you adopting?" The answer is obvious, of course.

Our son has only been home for six months, but we've heard it all already. I'm printing both lists and showing them to family and friends. I loved your response, too.

Gotta confess I was curious when I saw you had written "Zhuang". So I jumped over to your blog and found your "Metcha Day" pictures. Another Nanning adoption! The same room at the government building! And your daughter's eyes and intense look-boy does that remind me of someone. Our dd will be 4 the end of March. She joined our family in April '03. According to one of our guides she is most likely Zhuang. We just found all of that fascinating because although dh and I can only base this on documentaries we have seen about Vietnam the people in Nanning looked more Vietnamese to us than other Chinese people we had seen in China, esp. the young men who worked at the Majestic Hotel. Anyway-I'm not trying to categorize the babies into their ethnic groups but I find it to be something that may be of great interest to our daughter as she gets older. Nice to have "met" you.
