Vira

I am back from Hong Kong! It was a fun time, got the visa all straightened out once again, and got to experience another great city. Of course, someday I will go back as there was way too much to see and so little time.

The next family that contacted me was Vira's family, so I will be featuring her today.



Vira is a little girl that I also met here last year. She was born with a condition called congenital limb deletion, meaning that she was born with part of her arm missing. She doesn't seem to miss it though! She carries on just like the other kids and loves to play outside. I remember last year she would crawl around on the floor using her arm just like a hand, and this seemed to concern the nannies, but she thought nothing of it. And this year she is running around just like everybody else! When she is adopted her name will be Grace :)

This is a picture of Vira and I last year.
