Our Visit with Wei Ying (aka Annie)


When we were getting ready to travel to China, we thought we would have the opportunity to travel with two other families. As it turned out, we ended up traveling to China alone and two of the other children in the SWI where Saiya is from left before we traveled to pick her up. One of those little girls was Wen Wen, who we saw over Christmas break in Indiana, the other was Wei Ying, who we saw this past week while her family was visiting Florida.

Wednesday night, we invited her family over for dinner. We had a nice relaxing time with Jeanne and Andy while the girls played. As soon as Annie (Wei Ying) walked into the house, she looked at Saiya and said “You Ai!!”. She recognized her immediately. It was so cute that she remembered who she was!

The girls played for a couple of hours and then the next day, we all went to the zoo. The zoo was awesome! It was the second time we have taken Saiya to the zoo.  She LOVES it!  It was too bad the giraffes were not out so that we could feed them.  The rhinos were very cooperative though!

The girls had a great time! I am so glad that Saiya got to spend a little bit of time with her friend from the orphanage. Many thanks to her family for taking the time out of their vacation to come and visit with us!
