A Very Special WanYing Update

Yesterday we got an amazing comment on our blog. Through our comment on the Rumor Queen site (a China adoption update site), the administrator of a Chinese adoption site in Spain called "Con el corazon en China" (With heart in China) found our blog and recognized that our WanYing is being sponsored by a really big-hearted young lady in Spain named Laura. Laura left a note on our blog and through my killer high school Spanish skills and the miracle of Google Translate, we successfully exchanged several emails!

Laura has sponsored WanYing through a Spanish charitable organization called Adopchina since early 2010, which is awesome in and of itself, but becomes super-awesome because she's been posting photos of our little WanYing to her blog every month!

Courtesy of the fabulous Laura (thank you, thank you, thank you!), here's a brand new WanYing slide show!

8 Months - November 2009
11 Months - January 2010
13 Months - March 2010
14 Months - April 2010
15 Months - May 2010
16 Months - June 2010
18 Months - July 2010
19 Months - September 2010 - Our first glimpse of her beautiful smile!
20 Months - October 2010

Amazing! What a gift to us and to WanYing - the ability to piece together a baby book is such a blessing to all of us!
