Care Package Etc.

Her care package made it to China Friday morning around 9am. I feel like it will certainly make it to her before we do. Thank goodness. You work so hard to put it all together and then send it off on a wing and a prayer. We have been praying over that package, by the way. :) We sent an outfit to her that Sydney also has so that they can match on Gotcha Day. We even sent matching shoes; now that was just a shot in the dark on the size! We sent many photos of the house, her room, ALL of her new brothers, her sisters, Kevin & I, even the dogs and cat. Our agency provided Chinese labels for everything. Well, everything except the horses. We just hope she knows what they are! We sent her a stuffed horse to love on; he's very soft. We sent along chocolates and candies for the nannies as well as a disposable camera in hopes they would snap a few pics of her with friends, nannies, etc. I have to thank my mom for helping with the individually cropped pictures. I had tried and failed at that task. Sometimes having a family is kind of like having your own network; it's a GOOD thing! My mom said that the changes I made to the comment section DO make it easier to post a comment, so feel free! I'm going to call it a night and have sweet dreams about TAs early this week! :)

Our daughter, Piper.

She was found abandoned at the No. 24 gate of Guangfeng 1st village, Wuxi on 5-3-2003. She was wearing yellow sweater and there was a birth note stating she was born on 3-30-2003. ....When she was first sent here, she was weak. Under the care of the caregiver, her health condition improved much after she got 1 year old. ....She became a fat, white and lovely child. She was sent into foster family on 7-1-2004, she adapted her new life quickly.

Now ....she is active and interested in everything. She likes to play games. She is courteous. She usually talks in loud voice. She gets along well with other kids. She is emulative. She likes dressing up and wearing new clothes. She has a strong personality and is self-partial and adventurous. She has good memory and can remember all the names of people she is familiar with. She is a good kid and studies hard with good receptivity. She learns new things quickly and does best while playing games.

You know, several people have commented to me what a lucky little girl she is to have us. I have to tell you, we're the ones who feel pretty lucky right now!
