Anna Li Update

Wednesday night Anna Li just started talking in English! FULL sentences!! Her favorite sentence is Do you like______? horses, dogs, cats, chocolate, and the list goes on... We are really seeing a lot of progress. I picked Anna Li up from school today and her teacher said, "Anna Li has talked all day!" She is learning more and more English everyday. She is starting to sound out words and read. She is such a precious little girl and we are so proud of her. Oh wait a minute, she keeps reminding me...she is not a little girl- she is a BIG girl! No little, no little!

She is truly a gift from God and we are so thankful for His many blessings:)

Yeah! How exciting for Anna Li to be speaking so much English and for the rest of you to be able to understand her! It looks like you are all having a really nice fall. How funny~ the burning marshmallow!

Hi Chad and Kristy,
I am so happy to have found your blog. We will be traveling to India to get our 10 year old daughter in November (hopefully!). We have a 7 year old daughter who isn't too sure about having a sister. I love the pictures of your girls in matching dresses in China! It is so nice to read about how well Anna Li is doing...we pray our Pratima will adjust as well as she has.
It's really nice to find other families who have taken this leap of faith to create their families. Thanks for blogging! Melinda
