Lillie and her buddy Levi

Levi and Lillie were good friends at the SWI and were in several pictures together I recieved before we traveled to China. He is absolutely precious and we had the wonderful privilege of meeting Levi with his new family! His mom and dad and 2 brothers were in the same hotels we were in, so we had the chance to really get to know one another and to discover the many things the children had in common. When we returned, Levi's mom sent me pictures of the two that were on her disposable camera she sent to the SWI in a care package. (Yes, Levi is a little boy, although he rarely has on clothes that look "boyish". One of the first thing Levi's family said was that...although he does look fabulous in the color pink, they were excited to see him in other colors!) I think that meeting Levi's family was a gift from God and I hope that we continue to remain in touch. I beleive that for Lillie, Levi was the closest thing to a sibling she had!
