The photo album that we created for Hong Li was received in China. This is the special birthday gift that will go to the orphanage, along with a birthday cake that she can share with all of her friends. We included a self addressed stamped envelope, in hopes that she will somehow be able to communicate back with us (with assistance).

On a sad note, we found out today that our neighbors who are from Beijing are moving! It is very sad for Emma, who is good friends with their daughter, Lynn. Along with losing very good neighbors, we were hoping that they would be able to help us with translation issues when we returned from China. They actually translated Nina's photo album before we sent it, and we were so grateful. We do have their cell phone number, and they are just moving to another part of Lexington, but for any of you who have lost good neighbors, you know what I mean.............
