ENCOURAGING NEWS!!

As Ava is in foster care it is normal to get periodic updates re her height/weight developmental status etc. What I didn't know is that the foster family themselves fill out a report and forward it to my adoption agency and then I get a copy of this report. Well , when I received the report yesterday I was more than happy to see that it included both the names of Ava's foster parents and their telephone number and what street in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia they lived on. This is "so big" a finding, because now I have someone to contact once I have Ava home here , who hopefully can give me more info about the first year and half of her life. Some one who has loved her like their own and hopefully someone who will want to keep in contact, at least by letters and phone.
I also found out that Ava's foster parents are also fostering two other little girls...Ava's "Foster sisters". and hopefully if their potential adopters agree to share their contact info, Ava could potentially stay in contact with the only "sisters" she will probably ever have!! I am so excited about what these possibilities could mean for Ava. If anyone out there reading my blog has a child that they are about to adopt who is in foster care in Hohhot , Inner Mongolia and you know the name of the foster parents please leave a comment..... our daughters could possibly be living as sisters!!

I am so happy to hear that. It's all very exciting and hope all is well. I would like the address to send the fabric for the quilt let me know (littlestjo@hotmail.com). Thanks.

Wow...

this is indeed GREAT for you (said the other Chinablog-addicted;-))! Now I have wild fantasies that your daughter's foster parents know the foster parents where our daughter is staying at this moment! Could this be possible? I am hoping so deeply that we will be able to meet them when we are traveling to get our Li Na this fall...
