Another Care Package for Caitlin

Since we still are not sure when we will be traveling, we are sending another care package to Caitlin. It is not big since we were limited on size and weight (it needed to fit in a small box, and not weigh more than 4 lbs.), but we fit in as much as we could!
I am sending it to Ann with Red Thread in China. She is the wonderful lady who sent our last care package, and got us pictures and updated information of Caitlin within days. She is wonderful! I can only get the package to the local JinJiang City post office by myself; Ann can get it directly to the orphanage's door. We decided this was the best option to ensure the package actually gets to Caitlin.

In the package we included:

*Another letter which Ann will translate for us

*A recordable book from Hallmark; Paul and I recorded ourselves reading the story which will, hopefully, help Caitlin to recognize our voices when we finally meet

*An adorable ladybug "lovey" (thank you, Auntie Julie!!)

*Cookies for the nannies

*A super cute ladybug photo album (thank you, Mandi!!),
which we filled with more pictures of our house and family. Our next-door neighbor, who is studying Mandarin, translated the pictures for us.
