I know that LiLi had one in the home and I know that she was adopted two weeks before we got her in Nanning. I have posted on the Nanning Kids Yahoo group – but no luck finding her. LiLi has a picture of her with the foster sister and it is really neat. There is a little girl named Anna that has been with LiLi since she was in Guiping and they traveled to ML in Nanning together. They were on the same finding notice in Guiping and in Nanning. Their paper work was sent to CCAA and they end up together on the same waiting list with our agency. I find that total amazing! Our families hoped that we would travel together as we got to know each other, since as chance would have it our LOI went to China in the same packet. We didn’t. But those connections are so special to me and its funny how I feel “connected “ to other who have adopted out of Guangxi, compared to other that adopt from China. Is that stupid or what – and the thing is I’m a very level headed person ;-) well most the time!<br /><br />DebbiePixel Fairy Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18172958473005422309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19711718.post-26493858301374242962006-12-12T22:15:00.000-08:002006-12-12T22:15:00.000-08:00Marji,

Needless to say, Lulu was over the moon with the pix. What an incredible gift to receive and how lucky we are to have contact with them. I know that little foster sister's paperwork may soon be submitted to the CCAA, but even if I could find her file, it looks like singles may no longer be able to adopt from China. I hope she will find a good family and that Lulu will be able to keep in contact with her.<br /><br />Okay, Marji, do you think these foster moms all get together for knit-ins and group trips to the post office?<br /><br />DarleneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
