So far, shopping for little girl clothes has been the highlight of the long wait! I got her three shirts, a pair of shorts and two capri-length pants. I have decided to send simple outfits for the remainder of the wait. It was fun buying dresses and tights, but since I will probably never see Sarah wearing the dresses, I decided it's probably more practical to send everyday clothes from now on.
I also sent a Fisher Price musical toy, a book, and a Love a Lot Care Bear. The candy is for New Day staff and kids to share.
The thing I stress about the most each time I send a package is what to send her foster family. I have sent lotions and Easter candy in previous packages, and I was a little stumped as to what to send this time. I wanted to send something more personal, and came up with the idea to send something from the western United States (where we live).
I found this Yellowstone book (all pictures) in Barnes and Noble, and not only are the photographs beautiful, they also have Mandarin subtitles. So that sealed the deal for me! I attached a family picture inside the cover and wrote a short note of gratitude to the foster family. Hopefully they will enjoy this book and be able to share it with family and friends
1 Kind Words:
Those outfits are adorable!!! I think the Yellowstone book was a perfect addition too.
