A girl advocates for herself

2.1.16

I could post pretty pictures. I could share how we witnessed how sweet this little girl was with younger children, how eager she was to please us during English class in October, how she gently accepted our attention and smiled all the time. Instead, I’ll let her speak for herself because her words are way more effective at communicating who she is than my words about her.

Little girl in pink - 1

Dear Aunt Kelly:
My name is –. I am 10 years old this year. I am a lively and lovely girl. I like to dance, sing, shoot the ball. I like to play games with the kids.

I would like to have a family. I would like to have a mom and dad, brother or sister, or brother and sister. I would like to sing with them, play games, play together, blow bubbles.

I will study hard. I can happily wait for my family’s arrival. I hope my new Mom and Dad come soon to pick me up. I love you!

Interested in learning more about this little girl? She’s currently available for adoption through America World Adoption Agency. She’s “special focus” which means that any family, regardless of if they have any paperwork ready, could adopt her. Email the AWAA China team right now to learn more.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
