We got to meet another family who was meeting their future son this morning as well while we waited downstairs about 45 minutes before our appointment. Then the couple went to do paperwork with their social worker. About 9:30 am, Annaliese, Andy, and I, all sucked in our breath as we realized that little Stephen was there with his foster mom and dad. It was a more sudden meeting than we had expected, but it was nice to be taken off guard so that nerves hadn't had time to set in. He just ran around in circles and at first, made some loud noises. Then we got out the little ball we brought for him. It was a hit! He loved running around, throwing, kicking, and sharing the ball. After a bit, we got out some bubbles to help entertain as well. Then the social worker took us all up to a small room and we shared some snack with him, talked with the foster parents, and had some rousing peek-a-boo under the tablecloth games! It was wonderful. The kid is full of energy!

We rode the bus and walked around the market eating here and there. It was HOT and HUMID! especially in the market near the fryers! We also got to see the free Seoul History Museum, came back and napped for 4 hours accidentally, and then went out to dinner at 8 pm :)
