More Matched Children and Other Great News!

As always, my favorite posts to write are the ones announcing that our children have families and are coming home!

First, the matched children. We are thrilled to say that:

Aiden

 And...

Anderson

Have families! 

And we have families in China and families leaving to meet their children. (A lot is happening in the Superkids world!) 

Look at all of these beautiful little faces! They are now, or very soon will be, with their families.

They are why we do what we do. All of these beautiful little faces. Each one of them a precious child. Now a treasured son or daughter. May you all be blessed beyond measure!

Calling All Advocates

We have a young man who needs us. He ages out in three months. This means that he will no longer be eligible for adoption and will forever lose the chance to be part of a family. In three short months.

So, what can YOU do?

There have been several posts written about him. Share one or all of them. If you have blog, share on your blog. Share his story on Facebook and Twitter. Any other place you can think of to share his story? Go right ahead!

The posts about him are here, and here, and here.

We are at the point right now that if someone steps forward to adopt him the entire adoption could still be completed before his birthday, but that time is running out.

I've personally met Andy twice and I'm so hoping to tell him that he has a family coming to meet him when I see him again in April!

Do what you can for this deserving boy today!

For information about adopting Andy please contact April  Uduhiri at april.uduhiri@gladney.org.

Lovely Layla

Layla is a gorgeous little girl who just turned 6. She was met by the Superkids team in 2014 and we all found her to be a charming little lady. We observed her playing in a little toy kitchen. She obviously knew just what to do with the kettles and spoons and was apparently cooking up a nice little meal. She also gently cared for the doll and vacuumed the floor with a little toy vacuum cleaner.

She is described as gentle and well-behaved. She enjoys playing with other children her age and loves to sing and dance.

Layla's file indicates that she may have a low IQ, but she appears to be doing very well. She can count from 1-100. She speaks in complete sentences and can recite poems and rhymes. She takes care of her own personal needs. She can run, jump, and dance.

She is not picky with food and enjoys eating many different things. She loves to dress in pretty dresses. She said she doesn't have a favorite color but she likes to look pretty!

Could this darling little girl be your daughter? For more information about her or about any of our waiting children please contact April Uduhiri at april.uduhiri@gladney.org. 

A Bit Of Housekeeping

Every once in a while it is good to just do a little housekeeping on the old blog, you know?

So here goes.

The very astute among you may have noticed a new page at the top of the blog called Waiting Kids. This is a place where the children we are currently advocating for are all listed. There is a photo and a link to a blog post for each one.

I noticed this morning that our page views are at 99,947. That means we will tip the 100,000 scale today! Thank you so much for reading and for sharing! It really does make a difference for the children.

If you have a blog be sure to add us to your blogroll. The more people visit our blog, the more people see our kids. And that is a good thing!

Also, do you see where it gives you options to share post at the bottom of each post? Those are really easy to use and another great way to easily advocate for children waiting for families.

We have some super-duper exciting news coming soon and I don't want anyone to miss it! Can anyone guess what it could be?!

新年快樂 - Gong Xi Fa Cai - Happy Chinese New Year



Wishing each of you a prosperous, beautiful year!
