Anna's Discovery Notice




在决定领养小安娜之后, 我同Utah州一家叫“Research China” 的机构联系,请他们帮助查找当时刊登在报纸上“为安娜寻找家人”的启示。经过两个星期的努力,他们今天给我发来了好消息,找到了当时的广告。我收到后,迫不及待地打开了邮件。胖乎乎的小安娜立刻呈现在我的眼前. 这大概是有关小安娜的最早照片了。孩子太可爱了,我心里百感交集, 恨不得把她抱在怀里。

After we decided to adopt little Anna, I contacted an organization called “Research China” in Utah to look for Anna’s notice about her initial discovery. After two weeks of effort, they sent me good news today. When I saw their email, I opened it immediately. Little Anna’s chubby face appeared in front of my eyes. She is so adorable! This is probably the earliest picture of her we will ever be able to find. I just want to scoop her up and hold her tightly in my arms.
