Superstar!

Apparently we have a celebrity in the family. Max is making his debut in China. The Chinese love foreign kids and Max is no exception. He has been kissed by Chinese women in elevators, he has received gifts from shop keepers, his cheeks have been pinched and squeezed a dozen times. He had many photo ops with the Chinese at the Great Wall. It was a scream to watch! At the great wall women flocked to him to have their pictures taken with him, then kiss him. It is pretty funny. He has his own personal wait staff at the restaurant at the Gloria Hotel here in Nanchang. The girls try to take turns feeding him and they bring him treats. It is truly amazing to watch. Marc is feeling fairly jealous that he is not getting the attention, but he'll get over it! I spoke to a Chinese women yesterday and told her that most Americans find Chinese children adorable. We're all the same, aren't we?
