Happy Birthday, Joy!
Please welcome our new little girl, Joy Sa-Rang Platter. We met her and her escort at O’Hare in Chicago on Wednesday evening. She was very smiley and looked all around her at what was going on. After a very smooth pickup, we put her in the car and drove home. She cried a little bit, but slept most of the way home. She had a little trouble sleeping in the night. She would fall asleep, then cry and have a hard time calming down unless she was held. Then she would sleep some more, and go through the same routine a couple times. Finally around 3ish, she fell asleep for good and slept until.
Sa-Rang is a sweet little thing, appears quite healthy, and seems to be doing remarkably well developmentally. She likes to clap the palms of her hands, and pat things with her palms. She has a huge grin and she seems very curious about everything around her. She has obviously been very well cared –for by her Korean foster mother. Her foster mother provided us with many photos, including professional ones, a traditional Korean outfit called a Hanbok which is what they often dress their children in on their first birthdays, many other outfits, shoes, jewelry and toys. We pray that the foster mother is able to transition after sending her little one overseas.
Thank you all for your prayers, gifts, thoughts, etc. as we have awaited the arrival of our new daughter. We are anxious to introduce her to everyone soon.
