A couple weeks ago I sent a package to Miss Sophia. It arrived to our courier on Thursday. She added some things I bought from her website & forwarded it all to Sophia yesterday. She should receive it in a few days. Here are some pictures of the goodies we mailed.

| These are the things I sent from home. An outfit, a blanket, a toy, a pink dress up necklace, a doll, a Dora DVD, a photo album with pictures of our family and 2 disposable cameras. |

| This beautiful silk dress is from Ann's website. If it still fits her & she has it with her when we meet her in China, we'll use this dress for her infamous "Red Couch" photo at the White Swan hotel. |
 |
| Another outfit - it says "#1 Girl" on the front of the top. This is also from Ann's. |
 |
| Not sure what the weather is like in Hubei this time of year, but I also bought Sophia a jacket from Ann's website |
 |
| A picture of everything. The 2 bags of candy are for all the children where Sophia lives (not sure how many there are) and the green container at the bottom of the photo is tea for the foster family. Both of those items came from Ann's website. |

We used Ann at Red Threads to send the package. I mailed Sophia a package back in October, but I'm not certain if it made it to her or not - I sent it directly to the orphanage myself. This time, I sent the package to Ann, she added the extra items I bought from her and she sent it all on to Sophia. Also included in her services was translating a letter for us. In the past I've just used babelfish, which doesn't always translate the meaning of what I'm trying to say.
So by Chinese New Year (Feb 3rd), Miss Sophia will receive our big-o-box of love coming straight to her!!
