I have had a care package sitting in my bedroom for about 2 months - how sad? I guess a part of me was waiting for us to get logged in and a bit closer to be bringing her home... Her birthday is next month so i am really hoping that she gets it before then. I was going to send it directly to her orphanage (that's what we did with Hayleigh) but Maylynn is in foster care (or at least we think so...) So, when i asked our agency if this would be a good time to send her a package they suggested that i send it directly to Lily (the china coordinator) and then she would get it to Maylynn. Our agency said that this might also allow Lily to get an update on her. We so, so, desperately want an update -the last picture that we have of her is from June 2008 and the info is that old too... - so please pray for that;)
I couldn't fit everything in her package:( I was able to send a blanket (gma V made), an outfit, a couple of toys (Hayleigh and daddy picked out), some chocolate for the foster family and some questions and a camera. We also included a little picture album with the hopes that she will recognize us when we go to bring her home - hopefully, the foster family will prepare her for the transition.

Hi, I stumbled across your blog when I googled a question about the china dossier authentication. Apparently, your blog had the words "china dossier authentication" in it. Anyway, I stopped in to take a look... Imagine my surprise when I saw the World Clock on your sidebar and the time for Guilin, Guangxi under it. Are you waiting for LOA for a Guilin beauty? We are almost ready for our dossier to be authenticated for our Guilin beauty; she's 6 right now! Wow...a red thread, I'd say. This is our #2 adoption. Both have been sn's. Our first was 20 months when we came home; now 4. We decided to adopt an older child this time around. You can visit my blog. I'd love to hear from you. Thanks for allowing me to visit. Your daughter is beautiful and so is your family. --Sarah
What a sweet gift you are sending. How soothing for her and her foster parents to know she is already loved.
