Our adoption agency was able to translate and email some questions to Elani's orphanage for us so that we could hopefully get some updates on her health and development. I was very surprised today to get the updated pics and a short note on how she is doing since we just sent them an email last week! You never know if the orphanage will even respond with updates when you ask so we are excited to have a little more info.
The doctor at the orphanage stated that she is doing well and is active, follows directions and is also very social. Her cleft lip obviously is not repaired yet, and I was kind of hoping that it would be so she could progress in her speech but who knows if they will fix it over there b4 we pick her up? Many times they are repaired but you just never know..... One of those things that you just have to know that God's timing is perfect and He knows all of the details and sees around the corners that I can't see around.
Excited to meet her!! When Malea saw her pics today she said "Oh, she is so cute and she kind of looks like me, except for her "cleff lip". :)

awww... she is so cute and it will be so exciting to finally hug our Elani! Good thing she has personality because she has A LOT to keep up with, with your 3 adorable girls!
Yahoooo, Spears! What great news! What province and town is Elani in? Are you guys going through CCAI again?
Remarkably, Jane, Eliza, and I are heading back to China sometime from mid-March to early April. We were just matched with a little boy in Henan we've named Finnian. Our dossier has been in China for about 1.5 years, so once we switched over to the waiting child program, things took off like a rocket. We are scrambling to be ready. Our best to you all. We'll look for your updates.
