Ava's Easter Art

I am testing the mobile blogger app and needed something to write about. I thought Ava's Easter art would do. Happy Easter!

Meet Li

Meet Li!!

A few demographics:

We have named him Li James. His birthday is January 15. He just turned 3. 

He's small for his size- but really cute!! Here is a picture of him on his birthday:

He was found in a dormitory at 9 months. 

Since, he has lived in the same orphanage with a foster mom in Harbin, China. 

 

 He was born with extra thumbs. One day, he will make an awesome baseball player!! 

We decided to share the news of our adoption with our immediate family on Christmas morning. Here's a video of Ava opening her gift:
