Someone I work with had her husband (who's family is from China) translate our biography for us about Anne. We found out that she has been taken care of just wonderfully !! She seems to love her foster-mother and her foster-mother seems to care about her. The bio told us that she was given to her the day after she was found, so she has been taken care of by one foster mother most of her little life. She seems to be doing very well. She seems very strong and healthy and loves to play, laugh, and be held. It does say that she loves her sleep -- and her food!! It also said that she can be quite suborn and is not happy when she doesn't get enough sleep -- but food calms her down. (Just like her dad!!) Mike and I thank God every day that our daughter has had such a wonderful woman to take care of our sweet little girl. We know when we go to get her it will be hard to leave this caring foster-mother, but we can not wait to love, care, and play with her ourselves. I just hope and pray that God will be with us and Anne Marie during this transition.
We also found out exactly how to pronounce her name and what it means. Her first name is actually Ke Xiang (both names together are the 1st name). This will now be her middle name. It means cute flower. (Isn't that just too cute!!)
We also found out what her favorite toy was -- so we are hoping to find one when we get to China to give her some comfort with things she's used to.
We still have not heard anything about travel. We have just filled out a TON of paperwork for our travel approval and our visa's so, we should hopefully hear something within the next few weeks.
We will keep everyone up to date!
Mike and Melissa :o)
