(This is a photo of Katie taken in December 2007. She had written us the letter in the picture that one of the nannies is holding.)
In China, most people speak a language called Mandarin. Cantonese is also popular in some parts of China, and many areas have their own specific dialects.
Katie speaks Mandarin. We don't know yet if she has a certain dialect, but even if she does, she will understand Mandarin. She has started taking English this year in school, but we don't know how much she has learned.
Katie's Chinese name is Chao Yan ("Chow Yen"), which means outstandingly good, colorful and beautiful.
