Since we sponsored Leah we get a monthly e-mail about what she has been doing. The e-mail also includes a picture. I am going to get more pictures of her later this week. There are a few cute ones of very enjoying a tea party. I am going to send a package to her for Christmas. If anyone would like the add to it let me know! I hope that you enjoy this update as much as I did.
Leah turned 7 years old this month! She's been in our foster home 2 years now, and she's really learned a lot and grown up in many ways. She's our oldest child, and she is a big help to all of us. She is a clever and diligent little girl, but sometimes she's a big naughty… doing things like hiding people's shoes. One month ago the bigger kids went to an amusement park in Beijing. When they came back, Leah told me about what they did and played on at the park. They had a really good time.Recently Leah was able to go to a tea party at the home of one of our staff members. She had such a good time. She dressed up in a beautiful red velvet dress, and she really wanted to take something to the party. So, we let her take a bag of cookies. When she came home, she had stories about painting her nails, decorating cupcakes, and doing her own makeup. (Complete with bright blue eye shadow!) She had a very good time, and I was proud of her good behavior at the party.
