This morning, Mr. G. and Katie left early to get to Yangzhou orphanage. This is where Katie has spent the last 11 ½ years of her life. They did get lots of pictures, and I will share them as soon as we possibly can. SO much to tell you about this visit!
(A note to adoptive families: There is a LOT more I can tell you about this visit. This website is set up for school kids, but if you email me or leave a blog comment, I will share additional information.)
The nannies were very happy to see Chao Yan and know that she now has a family. They LOVED getting the pictures we brought of Noelle (Jie Ling), a little girl who was adopted in December, and they shared them with Ting Lee ( a child still waiting
for a family). They love getting updates on the children! They made Mr. G. promise to send updated pictures of Chao Yan at least once a year, and seemed to take an honest interest in the children there.
The director of the orphanage asked us to help them find a home for one specific child there. Ling Ling is 17 years old, so we are not sure if they will allow her to be adopted or if she would need to be sponsored. Ling Ling is visually impaired, but she is able to see some things. She attends a trade school, and was very cute and chatty with Chao Yan. Steve did get photos of her, and we will do what we can to help her find a family.
I will post more about the orphanage visit later! There's a lot more to tell you!Stay tuned!
