Gift Box from China




Sarah received a goodie box from her Chinese foster family! They sent her two wonderful PINK (do they know her or what!?) cell phone bags, a set of hand-made cross-stitched Beijing Babies (cross-stitched on front and back) and a gorgeous red silk dress. And, they sent another stunning black velvet dress for me!


Now, before I tell you the funniest part of the gift box, let me preface it by saying that we have never met Sarah's foster family and while she keeps in contact with them via phone, email and letters I'm not sure they've seen a photo of us. Having said that, it never occurred to me what "picture" why would have in their minds of what Kevin and I look like! Apparently, in their minds we look like this .....

Feel free to make all the comments you'd like!!

I recognized you immediately -- except for Debbi's glasses missing! The dresses are beautiful. The cross stitch is wonderful. They really must care about Miss Sarah. I'm so happy she remains close to them.

Ha! That is too funny! I guess it's the thought that counts :) But, in their "thoughts" you guys are OLD!!

That is way too funny.

Love the dresses so much! It would be my luck that I would get one much smaller than I am.... They just don't have my size in Asian style dress. I will have to have one custom made for me when we go back.
