This is our comment on Megan's blog and her response(A Team Chenzhou volunteer):
Megan, First of all THANK YOU!! I am so excited to have you all hugging and loving our daughter! I was looking at her photos that were downloaded to flicker and was beyond excited to see new pictures of our baby girl.
The first photos uploaded of our daughter, she is sitting in the lap of a Half the Sky Grandma. Is that her HTS Grandma? What is her name?
Other photos of our daughter, she is being held by a lady in a black knit top. Do you know who that is?
Later there is a photo of Elyssa (another TC volunteer) holding her and she looks like she is not to happy... Tell Elyssa thank you!
Is she babbling yet? Does she have a lazy eye? We'd love to hear anything about her.
Thank you a million times over, you are all our angels sent to love our babies!
Blessings and love, Juliet, Todd & Violet Culp
To the Culps: Shannon says that Penelope does seem to have a little bit of a lazy eye. I haven't had much time to play with her yet, so I'm not sure if she's making much noise. I'll be sure to find her tomorrow and make any observations I can about her. :) Both of the women holding your daughter are nannies. I don't think the children have a specific nanny... They just hold and care for whoever needs it or needs to be played with. The woman in the black shirt is the head nanny, I believe. She rotates between playing with the big and little kids. She's a big sweet heart, I love her a lot. I'll try to find more information about her tomorrow.
Half The Sky Grandma Program: The person with her is part of the Half the Sky Grandma Program, you can visit their web site at http://www.halfthesky.org/about/index.php Half the Sky offers the love and concern of family for thousands of orphaned children in China who have lost theirs. Their goal is to ensure that every one of China's orphans has a caring adult in her life.
