SWI Pics

A family who is adopting their little girl from the same SWI as Addison, is over in China right now with their beautiful daughter. Her father, Mark, was allowed to visit the orphanage, see Addison and take pictures of her. We are so thankful for the gift that Mark and Rachel have given us. Here is the email and pics he sent us.

Adreanna,
I saw Addison! She is a beautiful little girl. She was very lively. I told her that you love her and that you would be there very soon. I couldn't help but tear up knowing how you feel with her being here and you being there. She looks very healthy and well taken care of despite having to sleep on a board. They said that she sleeps on her back and that shes was best friends with Lily(our daughter). Their cribs were right next to each other. I think, just looking at her, that she's in 12-18mth clothes now? I'm a guy...what do I know. She is much larger than Lily and she's wearing 9mth.

I have attached some pictures that they allowed me to take of her. I hopes that this helps you hang on for those next few LONG weeks of waiting.

We have found out that another family we know adopting a little girl from this SWI sleeps right next to Addison. We talk about how our little ones are hopefully keeping each other company through the days and nights. We try not to dwell on the fact that Addison's life is less than perfect right now. We only know that when she gets home we will shower her with all the love she needs.
