When we were in China our guide returned to us a disposable camera we had sent to the orphanage as part of a care package. We sent them gifts and the camera (through a service that does this, Jamie knows the details) asking for pics of Noelle, the orphanage, and the city. The shots of the individual building/courtyard are of the Nanfeng Social Welfare Institute which was Noelle's orphanage. I was very surprised to see all the 3 and 4 year olds so I included a shot of the orphanage courtyard and some of its older residents. It is sad to say that most of them at this age have missed their window to be adopted. Most people ask for "as young as possible". Maybe this blog will strike a chord and one of them will find their way home. The shot of the nanny holding a baby is not Noelle, they made a mistake, she is the one in the bottom front of the screen.
Love ya'll!
