Hi,
I just want to tell you that I am the mother of a little Beiliu WI since June 2007 and I can assure you that you girl is in VERY good hands there.
The Nannys are wonderful and your girl will be a very happy girl when you see her. You can send gifts at the Beiliu with a disposable camera and they will take good pictures of your girl and her nannys.
If you want to see the refferal pictures of our girl, and also new pictures, or if you want more info on the Beiliu WI or Nanning (where you'll go on the first week, ) just write me !

Our daughter Grace (Guo Long, 5/8/06) was most probably born in the same city or near to where Precious Lily is from (Chongzuo City)! Guo means they were in the SAME first orphanage!!!
