Ahhh, Nancy Drew Karen has found me out! Yes, I am going to China! And not just China (which, just in and of itself would be amazing) but to the clubfoot casting unit at An Orphan’s Wish!
How God-sized is THAT?!?
LeeAnn of An Orphan’s Wish emailed me a few weeks ago and asked me if I’d be interested in traveling with her to visit the brand new unit, as well as the other floors of their special needs facility.
Not just yeah, but HECK YEAH!
We are set to leave on the 8th and we’ll spend our time there setting up a playroom at the House of Love (the special needs unit run by An Orphan’s Wish), taking lots and lots of pictures and loving up on all the precious babies that are housed there.
Like this little one…
and this one…
It’s like a dream come true for me. Seriously.
I just can’t stand the cuteness. May 8th can’t come soon enough.
Lori says
WOW!! That is so great!!!!
I really hope you get to see your Vivi! But also keep in mind (or find out before hand) about any Hague restrictions. Maybe there are none regarding that but…just be sure.
I’m so **jealous** that you get to do this! It is such a great opportunity!!
The Oswalds says
