Kai's Care Package and Updated Measurements!
















Since we received our LOA, we are now allowed to send a care package to Kai. There is a woman in China who is well known in the China adoption community for her ability to put care packages together and send them to the child's orphanage/foster home.

We decided to go this route, and Ann has been wonderful to work with. We sent Kai a Spring Festival (Chinese New Year) package that included a traditional chinese outfit, a stuffed panda, a fleece blanket, candies for his foster family and orphanage staff, a disposable camera, a picture of our family, and a translated letter that we wrote to his orphanage director and foster family.

Within 2 days of emailing back and fourth to Ann in China, she had already phoned Kai's orphanage and received his updated measurements. Our son is 20 months old, weighs 23.1 lbs, is 31.5 inches tall, and has 12 teeth. We were also told that his feet are 4.7 inches long.

Hang on Kai, we're coming soon!!!
