Wow! Great pictures! We are waiting for our LOC to travel to Hohhot to get our son! He is 17 months old right now and also in foster care! Did you get any of the care package items when you got Ava? Oh, and did you get the camera back with pictures of Ava and her foster family???!
I hope so!
May God bless the rest of your trip!

We were not allowed to visit the orhanage or the foster family but did get everything back that was in her care package...and the stuff looked like it had been used. Ava loves to look through the photo album I sent with family pictures...so I think they showed it to her alot. I also got the camera back I sent and it is full...can't wait to get it developed.

Liz,

Looks like you are all having a great adventure. I love the fact that they put the red door on first. Obviously, it is extremely important to the house!
