Chet's Homeland visit to his orphanage and Deaf school

There are really no words to describe what happened today, Fri Jan 18... the day we have been wondering if it is a good idea or not.... going back to the orphanage, the only life Chet knew...
One of the teacher's at the orphanage
But we must say it was AMAZING ... When we first entered we were lead to the meeting room, I was wondering what was going through Chet's mind because there were papers in there maybe seemed like adoption day.  Then some people came in to chat with us, then it was like there was a big announcement made that was heard all over Tianjin that Zhen Sen "Chet" is in town... people just kept coming in so shock but excited to see Zhen Sen. Some stayed with us the whole day, followed Zhen Sen everywhere he went. This was Chet's hollywood moment for sure... 


                                                                See for yourself
                                                                 this smile IS amazing!
A friend who no longer lives at the orphanage
heard Zhen Sen is in town
He drove to see Zhen Sen
He stayed with us the whole time
 
The homeland visit started at 9am, suppose to stay about 30 min, that did not happen.. The director was so grateful to see Zhen Sen again and so grateful to us for taking good care of Chet that he wanted to treat us to a special lunch to show his appreciation.  He went all out. Although we were not sure what we were eating, we were inspired by his generosity. 
We left the orphanage about 1pm..... Enjoy some pictures, you can see how happy the orphanage teachers, directors and kids were to see Chet. 

This teacher LOVES Chet..
At one point she had to walk away in tears because she misses him so much.
She is a very special lady.

  
Excited to see Zhen Sen
A friend walks up, as you can tell they happy to see each other
boys being boys









Friends who really miss their friend but thankful to see him!
  Will continue to keep you updated as soon as I can find a computer to do so....

Coming up... Chet said yesterday... almost time to get brother.... how sweet and he is right...

MONDAY at 2:30, we will have Sam.... Stay tuned....
