Hazel Update

Been a few days and I have been caught up in a flurry of paperwork.  My Seeking Confirmation Letter was sent to China and my Petition to Classify an Orphan was sent to the US Government...two major steps, so things are moving along.  I also had all of Hazel's paperwork reviewed by her new pediatrician and he gave it all the big "OK".

Then this morning, I got this gift.  I have been in touch with a woman in China who provides services to families that are adopting (Ann, she is wonderful) and she was able to get me some more current pictures and some additional information for Hazel ZiRui.  I estimate these to have been taken in the last three months (the previous pictures were most likely at least 6 months old). 

The other really important piece of information I received was her shoe size!!!   In the translated paperwork I received, I was told she LOVES shoes...likes to change them several times a day.  I'm telling you, a match made in heaven!!
