CHINA - XIAN





We have a new volunteer - her name is Anna & she is from the U.K. She is here with the organization called Eye to Eye (no idea if that's the way it is written) which is the same group that Elise was here with. So she just comes to us during the day. In the photo she is holding Karl (I have no idea who named him but .....Karl????......I mean, really!!!! - my apologies to anyone named Karl but it just doesn't work for me especially for a little baby) but you can't really see him so I put in another of him with our resident princess Libby. I think this is really cute cause it kind of looks like they are a couple. I know she doesn't look happy about being "an item" but believe me she was quite happy with him on the couch for ages until she decided she had had enough. I know I could have put a happy snap in but I like this one so much better.

It could be a snapshot of their future life. She's not happy & he has no idea why or what to do about it!

  1. Hi Trace,
    Love how you have their lives planned from a photo...NO you don't overthink!!!! Very funny to read your blog. Doug lol'd reading your Karl comments. Keep it coming...you make my day. Can't believe it has already been two weeks since you left. Do you feel you will be ready to leave the orphanage in a couple of weeks or will you feel a pull to want to stay longer? Love YP xo

  2. I wasn't over thinking!!!! It just seemed so couple-ish.
    Already want to stay longer but if I did would like to get more involved in other aspects of the foster home as well. Wish I could bring Julia home with me - you would love her, she has the best little cranky personality. I am trying to teach her to stick her tongue out.
