Update!

Now that we have PA, we were able to request an update on our little precious. Since Chinese New Year begins very soon, we figured we wouldn't hear anything until after the holiday toward the end of the month. So, today we received a sweet surprise . . . our update! We have answers to our questions, a few new pictures, and two new videos! What a blessing! Our girl is darling, I have to say, and she's got personality plus! Little Presley just seems to exude spunk and spirit! She is described as happy, smiles a lot, very active, and out going. She gets along well with other kids. She likes playing games and doing collage work by hand. She expresses herself very well and can follow all the lessons taught by her teachers. It makes her happy to eat snacks and wear new beautiful clothes. Well, guess who wants to go right out and buy her some new beautiful clothes?! And don't worry, we Metzgars always have plenty of snacks!


Medically speaking, she has had pneumonia twice and was in the hospital. Oh, my heart! We know that for a child with serious heart disease a common cold can quickly turn bad. However, she now seems to be doing well, and she is healthy. She has grown considerably since the last update 6 months ago, so that is a good sign. The update says that she participates in all of her preschool activities and that her daily life does not seem to be affected by her heart disease. We pray God's protection over our girl each and every day! We know He is holding her in His ever loving, faithful arms.

Here are a couple of her new pictures . . . playing ball and sweeping!
 She likes to sweep . . . that is just priceless!

New pictures and video are such a blessing, yet they are also a reminder of how quickly our little one is growing and changing without us. She looks the same, but different. We just can't wait to know her! We are comforted by the fact that she is known through and through by her Maker! And He does all things well!

Here are a few more snapshots from her new video! She is talking to her nanny and pointing out pictures on the wall. Her ayis are so sweet with her! She is also creating . . . well, she does enjoy collage making after all!
Now, we just have one more question . . . when can we bring her home?!
